    According to given bar graph , we have
    The production in 2006-07 = 1000
    The production in 2007-08 = 1200
    Increase in production = 1200 - 1000 = 200

    Percentage increase in 2007-08 =
    200
    × ́100 = 20% (lowest)
    1000

    The production in 2006-07 = 1000
    The production in 2005-06 = 800
    Increase in production = 1000 - 800 = 200

    According to given bar graph , we have
    The number of the students obtaining marks in the first interval ( 0-10 ) = 4
    The number of the students obtaining marks in the last interval ( 40-50 ) = 5
    Required ratio = The number of the students obtaining marks in the first interval : The number of the students obtaining marks in the last interval

    Correct Option: C

    According to given bar graph , we have
    The number of the students obtaining marks in the first interval ( 0-10 ) = 4
    The number of the students obtaining marks in the last interval ( 40-50 ) = 5
    Required ratio = The number of the students obtaining marks in the first interval : The number of the students obtaining marks in the last interval
    Required ratio = 4 : 5
