What is the difference between the total number of C3 type car manufactured by company E and G together and the number of bikes of type B1 manufactured by company H?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 40000

Application

Total number of C3 type car manufactured by company E and G together

= 280000 × 3/4 × 1/3  + 400000 × 3/4 × 1/6

= 70000 + 50000

= 120000

And

Number of bikes of type B1 manufactured by company H = 480000 × 2/3 × 2/8 = 80000

Hence,

Difference = 120000 – 80000 = 40000
