The bar graph given below shows the production of wheat (in tonnes) in different states. The production of wheat in S2 is how much less than the average production of wheat (in tonnes) per state?

The bar graph given below shows the production of wheat (in tonnes) in different states. The production of wheat in S2 is how much less than the average production of wheat (in tonnes) per state? Correct Answer 598.4 tonne

Given:

The following information is provided by graph

State

S1

S2

S3

S4

S5

Production

2001

2009

3001

3011

3015

Formula used:

Average = Sum of values/Number of values

Calculation:

According to the formula, we have

Average production = {(2001 + 2009 + 3001 + 3011 + 3015)/5} tonnes

⇒ (13037/5) tonnes = 2607.4 tonnes

Production of S2 = 2009 tonnes

So, required difference = (2607.4 - 2009) tonnes = 598.4 tonnes

∴ Production of S2 is 598.4 tonnes less than average production.
