Study the given graph which shows the target and actual production of ACs (in thousands) of a factory over five months and answer the question that follows.
Target and Actual Production of AC's (in Thousands) of a factory over five months.
The actual production of ACs in February is what per cent less than the average target production of ACs over the period of five months (correct to the nearest integer)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 29%
Explanation:
According to the given question,
The actual production of ACs in February = 50
The sum of the target production of ACs over the period of five months = (60 + 30 + 80 + 90 + 100) = 360
Now, the average target production of ACs over the period of five months = = 72
Difference = 72 - 50 = 22
The actual production of ACs in February is what per cent less than the average target production of ACs over the period of five months = = 30.5 % ≈ 31%
Hence the required answer is 31%.
