Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 16.92.
Explanation :
From the given table, total number of cars from all brands = (2000 + 2200 + 2700 + 1800 + 1300 + 3000) = 13,000
The number of cers by brand B2 = 2200
Now, the required percentage = (2200/13000) × 100 = 0.1692 × 100 = 16.92.
Hence the required percentage is 16.92%
