Direction: The bar chart given below shows the % distribution of the production of various models of a mobile manufacturing company in 2007 and 2008. The total production in 2007 was 35 Lakh mobile phones and in 2008 the production was 44 Lakhs.
Study the chart and answer the following questions. % of 6 different types of mobiles manufactured by a company over 2 years.

  1. For which models was the percentage variation in production from 2007 to 2008 the maximum?
    1. B and C
    2. C and D
    3. D and E
    4. A and B
Correct Option: D

As per given table , we can see that
For A , Production in 2007 = 40 , Production in 2008 = 30
Total increase = Production in 2007 - Production in 2008
= 40 - 30 = 10
In Model ,
Percentage Variation

=Total increasex 100%
Production in 2008

Model A ⇒10x 100 = 33 1
303

Simillarly , For B , Production in 2007 = 20 , Production in 2008 = 15
Total increase = Production in 2007 - Production in 2008
= 20 - 15 = 5
Model B ⇒5x 100 = 33 1
153

For C , Production in 2007 = 15 , Production in 2008 = 20
Total increase = Production in 2007 - Production in 2008
= 15 - 20 = -5
Model C ⇒-5x 100 = - 25
20

Hence required answer will be A and B models.
