The given graph shows the biscuit exports of India over a period of five years. Study the graph and answer the question that follows. In which year, the percentage increase in exports was maximum from its preceding year: Correct Answer 2007
Given:
|
Year |
Quantity |
Value |
|
2005 |
100 |
150 |
|
2006 |
75 |
150 |
|
2007 |
150 |
330 |
|
2008 |
160 |
400 |
|
2009 |
200 |
500 |
Calculation:
Decrease in exports in 2006 = 100 – 75 = 25
⇒ Percentage decrease = 25/100 × 100 = 25 %
Increase in exports in 2007 = 150 – 75 = 75
⇒ Percentage increase = 75/75 × 100 = 100 %
Increase in exports in 2008 = 160 – 150 = 10
⇒ Percentage increase = 10/150 × 100 = 6.66 %
Increase in exports in 2009 = 200 – 160 = 40
⇒ Percentage increase = 40/160 × 100 = 25 %
∴ Percentage increase was maximum in year 2007.
