Study the given graph and answer the question that follows.
The bar graph shows the exports of cars of type A and B (in millions) from 2014 to 2018.
The total exports of cars of type B from 2015 to 2018 is what percentage more than the total exports of cars of type A from 2015 to 2018 (correct to one decimal place)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 16.7%
Total number of years = 5
The total exports of cars of type B from 2015 to 2018 (in Rs. millions) = 250 + 200 + 275 + 325 = 1050
The total exports of cars of type A from 2015 to 2018 (in Rs. millions) = 150 + 275 + 175 + 300 = 900
The difference (in Rs. millions) = 1050 - 900 = 150
The required percentage = (150/900) × 100 = 16.66...% ≈ 16.7%
