Question:

Study the given graph and answer the question that follows.

In the year 2019, if the imports increased by the same percentage as that in 2018 over its previous year, then what was the amount(in ₹ crores) of the imports in the year 2019?

Options:

508.50

504

506.25

495

Correct Answer:

506.25

Explanation:

Percentage increase in imports in 2018 as compared to 2017 = \(\frac{450 - 400}{400}\) × 100

= (\frac{50}{400}\) × 100

= 12.5%

Now , Imports in 2019 = (\frac{112.5}{100}\) × 450

= 506.25
