The following tables shows the world production of steel in 1920-1927. Study the table and answer the question.

Question 112

The difference of the production of steel in the year 1923 and 1924 is x% of 1927. Then the value of x is approximately:

Solution

From the table,

The difference of the production of steel in the year 1923 and 1924 = 77.23-76.23 = 1

The production of steel in the year 1927 = 100.17

According to the Problem,

x% of 100.17 = 1

$$=$$> $$\frac{x}{100}\times100.17=1$$

$$=$$> $$x=1$$

Hence, the correct answer is Option B
