The bar graph given below shows the sales of Newspapers (in lakh number) from six branches of a Media Publication Company during two consecutive years 2017 and 2018.
(Note: The data shown below is only for mathematical exercise. They do not represent the actual figures).
Total Sales of U for both the years is what percent (correct to one place of decimal) of the combined Sales of the branches Q and R for 2017 and 2018?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Total sale of U for both the years = 80 + 100 = 180
Total sale of Q & R for both the years = (85 + 85) + (105 + 130)
= 405
Required percentage = \(\frac{180}{405}\) × 100
= 44.4%
