Study the given graph and answer the question that follows: The total number of vehicles of types C and D exported by the company in 2017 is by what percentage more than the total number of vehicles of types A, B and C exported in 2016 (correct to one decimal place)? Correct Answer 2.3%

Given:

Number of vehicles Export A B C D E
2016(In lakhs) 25 40 45 47.5 52.5
2017(In lakhs) 35 50 52.5 60 65.5

 

Calculation:

Total number of vehicles of types C and D in 2017

⇒ 52.5 + 60

⇒ 112.5

Total number of vehicles of types A, B and C in 2016

⇒ 25 + 40 + 45

⇒ 110

According to the question,

⇒ (112.5 – 110)/110

⇒ 2.5/110

In percentage form

⇒ (2.5/110) × 100

⇒ 2.3%(approx)

∴ The total number of vehicles of types C and D exported by the company in 2017 more than the total number of vehicles of types A, B and C exported in 2016 is 2.3%.
