Question:

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?

Options:

48.6%

67.1%

44.4%

41.0%

Correct Answer:

44.4%

Explanation:

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%
