    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    The gross traffic receipts in 1995-96 = $ 7500 million
    The gross traffic receipts in 1993-94 = $ 5300 million
    Increase = 7500 - 5300 = $ 2200 million

    Required percent increase =
    Increase
    × 100%
    The gross traffic receipts in 1993-94

    Correct Option: B

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    The gross traffic receipts in 1995-96 = $ 7500 million
    The gross traffic receipts in 1993-94 = $ 5300 million
    Increase = 7500 - 5300 = $ 2200 million

    Required percent increase =
    Increase
    × 100%
    The gross traffic receipts in 1993-94

    Required percent increase =
    7500 - 5300
    × 100 = 41.5%
    5300


Direction: Study the bar diagram carefully and answer the following questions.

  1. The export to Hongkong is approximately how many times the exports to Germany?









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    According to given bar graph , we have
    The export to Hongkong = 10.6
    The export to Germany = 1.2

    ∴ Required answer =
    The export to Hongkong
    The export to Germany

    Correct Option: C

    According to given bar graph , we have
    The export to Hongkong = 10.6
    The export to Germany = 1.2

    ∴ Required answer =
    The export to Hongkong
    The export to Germany

    ∴ Required answer =
    10.6
    ≈ 10
    1.2



  1. The ratio of the total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong to the export to rest of the countries in 1991–92 is nearly :

    From the given bar diagram , we see
    Total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong = 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 = 35.2
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Total exports of remaining countries = 69.6 - 35.2 = 34.4
    Required ratio = Total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong : Total exports of remaining countries

    Correct Option: A

    From the given bar diagram , we see
    Total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong = 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 = 35.2
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Total exports of remaining countries = 69.6 - 35.2 = 34.4
    Required ratio = Total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong : Total exports of remaining countries
    ∴ Required ratio = 35.2 : 34.4 ≈ 35 : 34


  1. The country to which twice the export is nearly equal to the average exports in 1991–92 is

    According to given bar graph , we have
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Number of countries = 10

    ∴ Average exports =
    Total exports
    Number of countries

    table>∴ Average exports =
    69.6
    = $ 6.96 billion 10

    Correct Option: D

    According to given bar graph , we have
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Number of countries = 10

    ∴ Average exports =
    Total exports
    Number of countries

    table>∴ Average exports =
    69.6
    = $ 6.96 billion 10
    Exports to UAE = $ 3.3 billion
    Hence , required answer is UAE .



  1. The ratio of the sum of the exports to the bottom six countries to the total exports to all the given countries in 1991 – 1992 is approximately :

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Total exports to bottom six countries = $ (3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 11.8 billion

    Required Ratio =
    Total exports to bottom six countries
    Total exports

    Correct Option: A

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Total exports = $ (22.6 + 12.5 + 12.1 + 10.6 + 3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 69.6 billion
    Total exports to bottom six countries = $ (3.3 + 2.5 + 1.6 × 3 + 1.2) billion = $ 11.8 billion

    Required Ratio =
    Total exports to bottom six countries
    Total exports

    ∴ Required Ratio =
    11.8
