The given bar graph shows the imports and exports ( in crores Rs ) of steel for 5 years from 2014 to 2018.

What is the ratio of average export to average import over the five years?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 247 : 218

Calculations :

Total import in five years = 350 + 380 + 420 + 450 + 580

⇒ Rs 2180 crores

Average import in five years = 2180/5 = Rs 436 crores

Total export in five years = 400 + 420 + 550 + 480 + 620

⇒ Rs 2470 crores

Average export in five years = 2470/5 = Rs 494 crores

The ratio of average export to average import over the five years

⇒ 494 : 436

⇒ 247 : 218
