Question

    Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions: The table shows the total number of vehicles travelled and difference between the number of Public vehicles and Private vehicles travelled in the given five years. Total Vehicles = Public + Private

    Number of Private vehicles travelled in 2013 is what percent of the Private vehicles travelled in 2014.

    A 128.66% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 104.66% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 116.66% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 166.66% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    To find the larger value we use the formula i.e. (Sum + Difference)/2. Public vehicles travelled in 2013 = (1100+400)/2 = 750 Private vehicles travelled in 2013 = 1100 – 750 = 350 Public vehicles travelled in 2014 = (800+200)/2 = 500 Private vehicles travelled in 2014 = 800 – 500 = 300 Required % = (350/300) × 100 = 116.66%
