Study the given graph and answer the question that follows: The number of weeks, in which the cost of living index was 160 or more but less than 190, is approximately what percent more than the number of weeks in which the cost of living index was 200 or more but less than 220 (correct to one decimal place)? Correct Answer 58.3

Given:

Cost of living index and number of weeks it stayed on that level

Concept Used:

Concept of ratio and proportion

Concept of percentage, it is calculated on the base of 100

For Example, x% means x out of 100

Calculation:

The number of weeks, in which the cost of living index was 160 or more but less than 190 is (4 + 6 + 9) = 19

The number of weeks in which the cost of living index was 200 or more but less than 220 is (7 + 5) = 12

Percentage more than is %

⇒ (7/12) × 100

⇒ 58.3%

∴ The number of weeks, in which the cost of living index was 160 or more but less than 190, is approximately 58.3% more than the number of weeks in which the cost of living index was 200 or more but less than 220 (correct to one decimal place).
