The average production of type A cars during the five years is what percent of the total production of type C cars during the five years?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 22.4

Application

Average production of type A cars in all 5 years = [46 + 53 + 56 + 58 + 67]/5 = 280/5 = 56

Total production of type C cars in all 5 years = 43 + 54 + 55 + 47 + 51 = 250

Hence,

Required percentage = [56/250] × 100 = 112/5 = 22.4%
