Direction: The following table shows the worldwide production of steel in 1920–1927. Study the table and answer the questions.
-
The ratio of production of steel in the year 1924 and 1925 to that of 1923 and 1927 is
-
- 2005 : 2077
- 2077 : 2205
- 2205 : 2007
- 2205 : 2077
Correct Option: B
According to given bar graph , we have
Total production of steel in the year 1924 and 1925 = 77.23 + 88.93 = 166.16
Total production of steel in the year 1923 and 1927 = 76.23 + 100.17 = 176.40
Required ratio = Total production of steel in the year 1924 and 1925 : Total production of steel in the year 1923 and 1927
Required ratio = 166.16 : 176.40 = 16616 : 17640
∴ Required ratio = 2077 : 2205
