a) 150%
b) 66.66%
c) 125%
d) 80%
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Production of rice in 2018 = 15 tonnes
Production of bajra in 2020 = 10 tonnes
The required percentage = 15 / 10 * 100 = 150%

3. Production of wheat in 2019 and 2020 is what percentage of its production in 2018 and 2017?

a) 133.33%
b) 150%
c) 183.33%
d) 200%
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: The production of wheat in 2017 and 2018 = 5 + 10 = 15 tonnes
The production of wheat in 2019 and 2020 = 12.5 + 15 tonnes = 27.5 tonnes
The required percentage = 27.5 / 15 * 100 = 183.33%

4. The production of wheat in 2017 and 2020 is what percentage of the production of rice in 2020 and 2018?

a) 33.33%
b) 66.66%
c) 100%
d) 150%
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: The production of wheat in 2017 and 2020 = 5 + 15 = 20 tonnes
The production of rice in 2020 and 2018 = 15 + 15 = 30 tonnes
The required percentage = 20 / 30 * 100 = 66.66%

5. The production of bajra in 2020, 2019 and 2018 is what percentage of average production of rice?

a) 120%
b) 200%
c) 250%
d) 40%
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: The production of bajra in 2020, 2019 and 2018 = 10 + 15 + 12.5 = 37.5 tonnes
The average production of rice = (10 + 15 + 20 + 15) / 4 = 60 / 4 = 15 tonnes
The required percentage = 37.5 / 15 * 100 = 250%

6. Study the graph and find what is the ratio of average production of bajra to average production of wheat?

a) 19 : 17
b) 17 : 15
c) 15 : 13
d) 13 : 11
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The average production of bajra = (10 + 12.5 + 15 + 10) / 4 = 47.5 / 4 = 11.875
The average production of wheat = (5 + 10 + 12.5 + 15) / 4 = 42.5 / 4 = 10.625
The required ratio = 11.875 : 10.625 = 19 : 17

7. The average production of wheat is what percentage of the average production of rice?

a) 80.83%
b) 83.33%
c) 70.83%
d) 69.69%
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: The average production of wheat = (5 + 10 + 12.5 + 15) / 4 = 42.5 / 4 = 10.625
The average production of rice = (10 + 15 + 20 + 15) / 4 = 60 / 4 = 15
The required percentage = 10.625 / 15 * 100 = 70.83%

8. Study the graph and find what is the ratio of average production of bajra to total production of rice?

a) 17 : 96
b) 19 : 94
c) 17 : 94
d) 19 : 96
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: The average production of bajra = (10 + 12.5 + 15 + 10) / 4 = 47.5 / 4 = 11.875 tonnes.
The total production of rice = 10 + 15 + 20 + 15 = 60 tonnes
The required ratio = 11.875 : 60 = 19 : 96

9. Study the graph and find what is the ratio of average production of the three grain in 2020 to the average production of rice?

a) 5 : 6
b) 6 : 7
c) 7 : 8
d) 8 : 9
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The average production of the three grains in 2018 = (15 + 10 + 12.5) / 3 = 37.5 / 3 = 12.5 tonnes.
The average production of rice = (10 + 15 + 20 + 15) / 4 = 60 / 4 = 15 tonnes
The required ratio = 12.5 : 15 = 5 : 6
