Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 202.42%.

The total amount of arrears paid by the companies = 4500 + 4800 + 4900 + 5300 + 5600 = 25100

The total amount of bonus paid by the companies = 2300 + 2100 + 2500 + 2700 + 2800 = 12400

Required percentage = 25100/12400 × 100

⇒ 25100/124 = 202.42%
