Study the chart and answer the following questions. % of 6 different types of mobiles manufactured by a company over 2 years.

  1. What was the difference in the number of B type mobiles produced in 2007 and 2008?
    1. 3,55,000
    2. 2,70,000
    3. 2,25,000
    4. 1,75,000
Correct Option: A

Given:- The total production of mobile phones in 2007 = 35 Lakh
The total production in 2008 = 44 Lakh
Percentage of B type mobiles produced in 2007 = 20%
Percentage of B type mobiles produced in 2008 = 15%
Required difference = The number of B type mobiles produced in 2007 - The number of B type mobiles produced in 2008
Required difference = ( The total production in 2008 x Percentage of B type mobiles produced in 2007 ) - ( The total production of mobile phones in 2007 x Percentage of B type mobiles produced in 2008 )
= 44 x 20% - 35 x 15%

=44 x 20- 35 x 15
100100

=880 - 525= 355 Million = 355000
