According to given bar graph , we have
The per acre yield of India = 200
The per acre yield of Pakistan = 160
Change in acre yield = 200 - 160 = 40Required percent = Change in acre yield × 100 The per acre yield of Pakistan
Correct Option: B
According to given bar graph , we have
The per acre yield of India = 200
The per acre yield of Pakistan = 160
Change in acre yield = 200 - 160 = 40Required percent = Change in acre yield × 100 The per acre yield of Pakistan Required percent = 40 × 100 = 25% 160

According to given bar graph , we have
Sum of the per acre yield = 80 + 120 + 132 + 120 + 160 + 200 = 812
Number of countries = 6Required average = Sum of the per acre yield Number of countries Required average = 
80 + 120 + 132 + 120 + 160 + 200 
kg. 6
Correct Option: D
According to given bar graph , we have
Sum of the per acre yield = 80 + 120 + 132 + 120 + 160 + 200 = 812
Number of countries = 6Required average = Sum of the per acre yield Number of countries Required average = 80 + 120 + 132 + 120 + 160 + 200 kg. 6 Required average = 812 = 406 = 135 1 kg. 6 3 3
Direction: Study the following bar graph carefully to answer the questions.

On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total product per acre = 490 + 322 = 812 quintal
The yield per acre produced by Bangladesh = 120∴ Required percent = The yield per acre produced by Bangladesh × 100 Total product per acre
Correct Option: C
On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total product per acre = 490 + 322 = 812 quintal
The yield per acre produced by Bangladesh = 120∴ Required percent = The yield per acre produced by Bangladesh × 100 Total product per acre Required percent = 120 × 100 ≈ 14.8% 812
- If the yield per acre is arranged in ascending order, then what is the difference between the yield per acre of first three countries and last three countries?
-

From the given bar diagram , we see
Ascending order of yield per acre : 82, 120, 120, 130, 160, 200
The yield per acre of first three countries = 130 + 160 + 200 = 490
The yield per acre of last three countries = 82 + 120 + 120 = 322
∴ Required difference = The yield per acre of first three countries – The yield per acre of last three countriesCorrect Option: A
From the given bar diagram , we see

The yield per acre of first three countries = 130 + 160 + 200 = 490
The yield per acre of last three countries = 82 + 120 + 120 = 322
∴ Required difference = The yield per acre of first three countries – The yield per acre of last three countries
Required difference = (490 – 322) quintals = 168 quintals
