The total production of type B cars in 2015 and type D cars 2016 is what percent less than the total production of type E cars in five years?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 

Application

Total production of type B cars in 2015 and type D cars in 2016 = 66 + 74 = 140

Total production of type E cars in all 5 years = 48 + 58 + 63 + 64 + 67 = 300

Hence,

Required percentage = [(300 – 140)/300] × 100 = 160/3 = %
