Direction: In the following questions, the Graph shows the demand and production of different companies. Study the graph and answer the questions.

What is the difference between the average demand and the average production of the companies (in lakh tonnes)? [Approximately]

1. 200
2. 325
3. 275
4. 250

Correct Option: C

According to given graph in question ,
Sum of demand of the all given companies = 2100 + 3150+ 2600+ 5000+ 2800+ 3300
Total number of companies = 6
And Sum of production of the all given companies = 1450+ 3660+ 3100 + 4200 + 3700 + 4500

Average demand =	(2100 + 3150+ 2600+ 5000+ 2800+ 3300)	lakh tonnes
	6

Average demand =	18950	lakh tonnes
	6

Average production =	(1450+ 3660+ 3100 + 4200 + 3700 + 4500)	lakh tonnes
	6

Average production =	20610	lakh tonnes
	6

Required difference =		20610	-	18950
		6		6

Required difference =	1660	= 276.7 lakh tonnes
	6

∴ Required answer = 275 lakh tonnes
