In 2017, let the requirement of wheat in Bangladesh = a tons
Total wheats imported = 60% of a = 0.6a
The wheat produced = 40% of a = 0.4a
In 2018, total production = 120% of 0.4a = 0.48a
Total requirement = 125% of a = 1.25a
Total wheat imported = 1.25a - 0.48a = 0.77a
According to the question, 0.77a - 0.6a = 0.17a = 4845
a = 28500 tons
The required answer = 0.48a - 0.4a = 0.08a = 0.08*28500 = 2280
