Direction: Study the bar diagram carefully and answer the following questions.
-
The ratio of the total exports to Japan, Belgium and Hongkong to the export to rest of the countries in 1991–92 is nearly :
-
- 35 : 34
- 35 : 69
- 69 : 35
- 35 : 35
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
