Introduction to Data Interpretation

Direction: The following graph shows the production of wheat flour (in 1000 tonnes) by three companies X, Y and Z over the years. Study the graph and answer the questions.

  1. What is the ratio of the average production of company X in the period 2002-2004 to the average production of company Y in the same period?
    1. 1 : 1
    2. 15 :17
    3. 23 : 25
    4. 27 : 29
Correct Option: C

From the given bar diagram , we see
Total production of company X in the period 2002-2004 = 250 + 500 + 400 = 1150
Total production of company Y in the period 2002-2004 = 350 + 400 + 500 = 1250
Number of given years = 3

Required ratio = 250 + 500 + 400 : 350 + 400 + 500
33

Required ratio = 1150 : 1250 = 23 : 25
