The following bar graph shows the sales (in thousand numbers) of scooters from six different companies in 2011 and 2012.
The total sales of company B for both the years are what percentage of the total sales of company E for both the years?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 65.12%.
Company B:
2011 sales = 10,000
2012 sales = 18,000
Total = 10 + 18 = 28 (thousand units)
Company E:
2011 sales = 18,000
2012 sales = 25,000
Total = 18 + 25 = 43 (thousand units)
Percentage = (Total sales of B/Total sales of E) × 100 = (28/43) × 100 ≈ 65.12%
