Study the graph and answer question.
By what percentage are the total imports of the country in 2016 and 2017 less than the total exports in 2014, 2015 and 2018? (Your answer should be correct to one decimal place)
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Total imports in 2016 & 2017 = 375 + 425 = 800
Total exports in 2014 , 2015 & 2018 = 500 + 560 + 440 = 1500
Required percentage = \(\frac{1500 - 800}{1500}\) × 100
= \(\frac{700}{1500}\) × 100
= 46.7%
