Question 65

The table shows the production of different types of cars (in thousands).

The total production of type E cars in 2012 and 2013 is approximately what percent more than the average production of type A cars during the years 2012 to 2016?

Solution

As per the given table,

Total production of type E car in 2012 and 2013 $$=47+43=90$$

Average production of type A car $$\dfrac{54+58+60+63+55}{5}=\dfrac{290}{5}=58$$

Hence, the required precentage $$=\dfrac{(90-58)\times 100}{58}=\dfrac{32\times 100}{58}=55.17\% \cong52.2\%$$
