Directions: Study the given bar-graph and answer the question that follows.
The bar-graph shows the sales of books (in thousands) from six branches (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 and B6) of a publishing company during two consecutive years 2000 and 2001.
The total sales of branch B6 for both the years is what percentage of the total sales of branch B3 for both the years (correct up to two decimal places)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 73.17%.
The total sales of B4 in both the years = 70 + 80 = 150
The total sales of B3 in both the years = 95 + 110 = 205
Required percentage = 150/205 × 100 = 73.17%
