2016, 2017

2016, 2018

Correct Answer:

2016, 2018

Explanation:

Percentage of sale in 2015 = \(\frac{1000}{1250}\) × 100 = 80%

Percentage of sale in 2016 = \(\frac{1290}{1400}\) × 100 = 92.14%

Percentage of sale in 2017 = \(\frac{1100}{1450}\) × 100 = 75.86%

Percentage of sale in 2018 = \(\frac{1450}{1500}\) × 100 = 96.67%

Percentage of sale in 2019 = \(\frac{1390}{1600}\) × 100  = 86.87%

Percentage of sale of production is more in year 2016 & 2018 .
