Introduction to Data Interpretation

Direction: Study the following bar-diagram carefully and answer the questions. The bar graph given below shows the foreign exchange reserves of a country (in million US $) from 1991-1992 to 1998 - 1999.

  1. Ratio of the sum of foreign exchange reserves during the years 1991-92, 1992-93, 1993-94 to that during the years 1995-96, 1996-97, 1997-98 is
    1. 31 : 35
    2. 35 : 31
    3. 37 : 52
    4. 52 : 37
Correct Option: C

According to given bar graph , we have
Sum of foreign exchange reserves during the years 1991-92, 1992-93, 1993-94 = 2640 + 3720 + 2520 = 8880
Sum of foreign exchange reserves during the years 1995-96, 1996-97, 1997-98 = 3120 + 4320 + 5040 = 12480
Required ratio = Sum of foreign exchange reserves during the years 1991-92, 1992-93, 1993-94 : Sum of foreign exchange reserves during the years 1995-96, 1996-97, 1997-98
∴ Required ratio = 8880 : 12480 = 37 : 52
