    As per the given graph in question , we have
    Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006 = 15000
    Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2007 = 30000
    Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2008 = 20000
    ∴ Required ratio = Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006 : Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2007 : Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2008

    Correct Option: C

    From the given bar diagram , we see
    Number of CD produced by the company in 2008 = 25000
    Number of pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 = 30000
    Total number of CD and pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 = 25000 + 30000 = 55000
    Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006 = 15000
    Required difference = Total number of CD and pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 - Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006

    Correct Option: D

    From the given bar diagram , we see
    Number of CD produced by the company in 2008 = 25000
    Number of pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 = 30000
    Total number of CD and pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 = 25000 + 30000 = 55000
    Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006 = 15000
    Required difference = Total number of CD and pen-drives produced by the company in 2008 - Number of keyboards produced by the company in the year 2006
    ∴ Required difference = 55000 - 15000 = 40000
