Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
⇒ Percentage fall in production of R in 2012 = \(\frac{10 }{40}\) × 100 = 25%
⇒ Percentage rise in production of R in 2013 = \(\frac{20 }{30}\) × 100 = 66.67%
⇒ Percentage fall in production of R in 2014 = \(\frac{30 }{50}\) × 100 = 60%
⇒ Percentage fall in production of R in 2015 = \(\frac{30 }{20}\) × 100 = 150%
⇒ So , Percentage fall in production of R is maximum for year 2015 i.e. 150%
