According to given bar graph , we have
The total sales of branch B2 for both years = 75 + 65 = 140 thousands
The total sales of branch B4 for both years = 85 + 95 = 180 thousands
Required ratio = The total sales of branch B2 for both years : The total sales of branch B4 for both yearsCorrect Option: D
According to given bar graph , we have
The total sales of branch B2 for both years = 75 + 65 = 140 thousands
The total sales of branch B4 for both years = 85 + 95 = 180 thousands
Required ratio = The total sales of branch B2 for both years : The total sales of branch B4 for both years
Required ratio = 140 : 180 = 7 : 9
