On the basis of given graph in question ,
Sum of production of type P vehicles = 100 + 125 + 200 + 225 + 275 + 275
Total number of given years = 6Average production of type P vehicles = Sum of production of type P vehicles Total number of given years Average production of type P vehicles = 100 + 125 + 200 + 225 + 275 + 275 6
Correct Option: A
On the basis of given graph in question ,
Sum of production of type P vehicles = 100 + 125 + 200 + 225 + 275 + 275
Total number of given years = 6Average production of type P vehicles = Sum of production of type P vehicles Total number of given years Average production of type P vehicles = 100 + 125 + 200 + 225 + 275 + 275 6 Average production of type P vehicles = 1200 = 200 thousands 6
The production of Type P vehicles of the company more than the average production of this type vehicles is 200 thousands .
So , Required years ⇒ 2012, 2013 and 2014
Hence , required answer is 3 .

As per the given line graph in question , we can see
Companies having more demand than production ⇒ A and D = 2
Companies having more production than demand ⇒ B, C, E and F = 4
∴ Required ratio = Companies having more demand than production : Companies having more production than demandCorrect Option: B
As per the given line graph in question , we can see
Companies having more demand than production ⇒ A and D = 2
Companies having more production than demand ⇒ B, C, E and F = 4
∴ Required ratio = Companies having more demand than production : Companies having more production than demand
∴ Required ratio = 2 : 4 = 1 : 2

On the basis of given graph in question , we have
The production of company A = 1450
The demand of company C = 2600Required percent = The production of company A × 100 The demand of company C Required percent = 1450 × 100 2600
Correct Option: D
On the basis of given graph in question , we have
The production of company A = 1450
The demand of company C = 2600Required percent = The production of company A × 100 The demand of company C Required percent = 1450 × 100 2600 Required percent = 1450 = 55.8 26

According to given graph in question ,
Sum of demand of the all given companies = 2100 + 3150+ 2600+ 5000+ 2800+ 3300
Total number of companies = 6
And Sum of production of the all given companies = 1450+ 3660+ 3100 + 4200 + 3700 + 4500Average demand = (2100 + 3150+ 2600+ 5000+ 2800+ 3300) lakh tonnes 6 Average demand = 18950 lakh tonnes 6 Average production = (1450+ 3660+ 3100 + 4200 + 3700 + 4500) lakh tonnes 6 Average production = 20610 lakh tonnes 6
Correct Option: C
According to given graph in question ,
Sum of demand of the all given companies = 2100 + 3150+ 2600+ 5000+ 2800+ 3300
