Read the information given below and answer the 3 associated questions.
The following graph depicts sector-wise percentage contributions to the gross domestic product (GDP) of nine nations, labelled “Nation A”, “Nation B” and so on. It is known that these nations are Brazil, China, France, Germany,India, Japan, Russia, the UK and the USA, but not necessarily in the same order.
The following, however, are known:
i) The GDPs of the nine nations (in US $ trillion) are:
ii) China has the highest agriculture sector GDP, valued at US $1 trillion, followed respectively by the USA and India
iii) In terms of percentage contribution to the respective nations’ GDPs by their service sectors, the UK and France are respectively the first and the second
iv) Nation A, Nation B and Nation G have the same GDP
v) The GDPofIndia’s industry sector is lower than the GDP of Russia’s industry sector. However,it is larger than that of Brazil's industry sector
Which of the following information, when considered in addition to the given information, does not allow us to completely identify the nine nations in the graph?
FRom ii, China is F.
FRom iv and v, India must be A, Brazil must be G and Russia must be B.
India's GDP due to agriculture = 17% of 2 trillion =0.34 trillion.
FRom i, USA GDP due to agriculture> 0.34 trillion and <1 trillion i.e. it's percentage must be >2% and less than 5.8%
So, USA can be C/E/H.
From point 3, UK must be D and France must be H=> U.S.A must be C/E.
Now, Germany and Japan can be C or I.
Option A: If Germany is C, then its GDP will be 1 but given its gdp is 1.2 So, C is not Germany. If Germany is I, then its GDP will be 1.2trillion. Hence, Germany is I => Japan is C/E and USA is C/E. If USA is C then its GDP due to agriculture is not 3rd highest. So, USA is E and Japan is C.
Option A is correct.
