The total production of type B cars in all the five years is what percent more than the total production of type A, B and D cars in 2017?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Correct Answer is option 1 i.e. 47.5

Application

Total production of type B cars = 54 + 45 + 47 + 50 + 40 = 236

Total production of type A, B and D cars in 2017 = 43 + 50 + 67 = 160

Required percentage = [(236 - 160)/160] × 100 = 760/16 = 47.5%
