On the basis of given bar graph in question ,
Sum of deficit from years 1987 to 1995 = 2200 + 3100 + 2100 + 2800 + 2600 + 3600 + 4200 + 2600 = 23200 millions
Total number of years = 8Average deficit = 23200 = 2900 million 8
∴ Required ratio = Number of years in which the trade deficit is above the average deficit : Number of years in which the trade deficit is below the average deficit
Correct Option: A

∴ Required ratio = Number of years in which the trade deficit is above the average deficit : Number of years in which the trade deficit is below the average deficit
∴ Required ratio = 3 : 5

According to given bar graph in question ,
The deficit in 1992-93 = 3600
The deficit in 1991-92 = 2600
Increase = 3600 - 2600 = 1000Percentage increase in 1992-93 ⇒ 1000 × 100 ≈ 38% 2600
The deficit in 1990-91 = 2800
The deficit in 1989-90 = 2100
Increase = 2800 - 2100 = 700Percentage increase in 1990-91 ⇒ 700 × 100 ≈ 33.3% 2100
The deficit in 1988-89 = 3100
The deficit in 1987-88 = 2200
Increase = 3100 - 2200 = 900
Correct Option: D

Increase = 2800 - 2100 = 700Percentage increase in 1990-91 ⇒ 700 × 100 ≈ 33.3% 2100
The deficit in 1988-89 = 3100
The deficit in 1987-88 = 2200
Increase = 3100 - 2200 = 900Percentage increase in 1988-89 ⇒ 900 × 100 ≈ 41% 2200

According to given bar graph in question ,
The deficit in 1993-94 = 4200
The deficit in 1989-90 = 2100
Increase = 4200 - 2100Percentage increase = Increase × 100 The deficit in 1989-90
Correct Option: C
According to given bar graph in question ,
The deficit in 1993-94 = 4200
The deficit in 1989-90 = 2100
Increase = 4200 - 2100Percentage increase = Increase × 100 The deficit in 1989-90 Percentage increase = 2100 × 100 = 100% 2100

According to given bar graph in question ,
The daily payment made to each worker which contains 9 workers = $ 35
Required total daily payment = 35 × 9 = $ 315Correct Option: B
According to given bar graph in question ,
The daily payment made to each worker which contains 9 workers = $ 35
Required total daily payment = 35 × 9 = $ 315
Hence , The total daily payment made to the group which contains 9 workers is $ 315 .
