The given bar graph shows the percentage of production of three companies C1, C2, and C3 over five years. Study the bar graph and answer the question that follows.
If the ratio of the total production in the year 2019 and 2022 is 3:5 and the total production in C1 in 2022 is 4125, then the total production of C3 in the year 2019 is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 1575.
Total production of 2019 / Total production of 2022 = 3/5
⇒ Total production in C1 in 2022 = 4125
⇒ 27.5% = 4125
⇒ 1% = 150
Therefore total production in 2022 = 15000
⇒ Then total production in 2019 = 3 × 3000 = 9000
⇒ Total production of C3 in the year 2019 = 9000 ×17.5% = 1575
