On the basis of given graph in question , we can see
Average prices of petrol in year 2014 = $ 73.70
And Average prices of Diesel in year 2014 = $ 66.79
Required Difference = Average prices of petrol in year 2014 - Average prices of Diesel in year 2014Correct Option: C
On the basis of given graph in question , we can see
Average prices of petrol in year 2014 = $ 73.70
And Average prices of Diesel in year 2014 = $ 66.79
Required Difference = Average prices of petrol in year 2014 - Average prices of Diesel in year 2014
Required Difference = $ (73.70 – 66.79) = $ 6.91
It is obvious from the graph.
- What is the approximate percentage difference in average price of Petrol in 2004 and in 2014?

According to given graph in question ,
Average price of Petrol in 2004 = 73.70
Average price of Petrol in 2014 = 36.49Required percent = 
73.70 - 36.49 
× 100 36.49
Correct Option: C
According to given graph in question ,
Average price of Petrol in 2004 = 73.70
Average price of Petrol in 2014 = 36.49Required percent = 73.70 - 36.49 × 100 36.49 Required percent = 3721 ≈ 102% 36.49
Direction: The following graph shows production (in thousands) of two types (P and Q) of vehicles by a factory over the years 2009 to 2014. Study the graph and answer the given questions.
- The production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 was approximately what percent of Type P vehicles in 2014?

On the basis of given graph in question ,
The production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 = 150
The production of Type P vehicles in 2014 = 275Required percent = The production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 × 100 The production of Type P vehicles in 2014
Correct Option: C
On the basis of given graph in question ,
The production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 = 150
The production of Type P vehicles in 2014 = 275Required percent = The production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 × 100 The production of Type P vehicles in 2014 Required percent = 150 × 100 = 54.5% 275
- The ratio of total production of Type P vehicles to total production of type Q vehicles over the years is

From the given line graph in question ,
Total production of type P vehicles = 1200 thousands
Total production of type Q vehicles = 175 + 150 + 125 + 175 + 175 + 225 = 1025
∴ Required ratio = Total production of type P vehicles : Total production of type Q vehiclesCorrect Option: A
From the given line graph in question ,
Total production of type P vehicles = 1200 thousands
Total production of type Q vehicles = 175 + 150 + 125 + 175 + 175 + 225 = 1025
∴ Required ratio = Total production of type P vehicles : Total production of type Q vehicles
∴ Required ratio = 1200 : 1025 = 48 : 41
- The total production of Type P vehicles in the years 2009 and 2011 is what percent of total production of Type Q vehicles in 2010 and 2014?

On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total production of type P vechicles in 2009 and 2011 = 100 + 200 = 300 thousands
Total production of type Q vehicles in 2010 and 2014 = 150 + 225 = 375 thousands∴ Required percent = Total production of type P vechicles in 2009 and 2011 × 100 Total production of type Q vehicles in 2010 and 2014
Correct Option: C
On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total production of type P vechicles in 2009 and 2011 = 100 + 200 = 300 thousands
Total production of type Q vehicles in 2010 and 2014 = 150 + 225 = 375 thousands∴ Required percent = Total production of type P vechicles in 2009 and 2011 × 100 Total production of type Q vehicles in 2010 and 2014 ∴ Required percent = 300 × 100 = 80% 375
