Understanding

Application

Calculation

White colour motor cycles = 18%

 

So,

Number of red colour motor cycles = 414

⇒ 2300 × 18/100

⇒ 23 × 18

⇒ 414

Blue colour motor cycles = 21%

 

So,

Number of red colour motor cycles = 483

⇒ 2300 × 21/100

⇒ 23 × 21

⇒ 483

 

Hence,

Difference = 69

⇒ 483 – 414 = 69
