The table given below shows the production of rice and the area under rice cultivation of a country for 5 consecutive years Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 and Y5. Year Rice Production (in 1000 kg) Area Under Rice Cultivation (in 100 square meter) Y1 520 130 Y2 570 190 Y3 680 150 Y4 720 180 Y5 850 170 what is the percentage change in the yield per square meter of Y5 as compared to Y1?

Correct Answer 25%
Calculation:
Yield per square meter of Y1 = 520/130 = 4
Yield per square meter of Y5 = 850/170 = 5
∴ Required Percentage = ((5 – 4)/4) × 100 = 25%
