What percentage more of visitors visited Mehta's Cafe to Bhide's Cafe (correct to two decimals places)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 0.78%.

Total visitors in Bhide's cafe = 559 + 1118 = 1677

Total visitors in Mehta's cafe = 666 + 1024 = 1690

Required percentage = [(1690 - 1677)/1677] × 100

⇒ 100 × 13/1677 = 0.78%
