The given bar graph shows the export of jute by a company over the years 2011 to 2017. Which of the following pairs of years has the maximum percentage of decrease in export? Correct Answer 2015 - 2016

Given:

A bar graph showing jute export from the year 2011 to 2017.

Calculation:

To find the difference in the each pair of years,

2011 - 2012 = 11.4 - 10.8 = 0.6

2012 - 2013 = 9.5 - 11.4 = - 1.9

2013 - 2014 = 9.9 - 9.5 = 0.4

2014 - 2015 = 7.8 - 9.9 = - 2.1

2015 - 2016 = 5.2 - 7.8 =  - 2.6

2016 - 2017 = 6.5 - 5.2 = 1.3

From the above, we know that there was a decrease in export in the years 2012 - 2013, 2014 - 2015 and 2015 - 2016.

In all these years, 2015 - 2016 has the maximum amount of decrease.

∴ The maximum percentage of decrease in export was in the year 2015 - 2016.
