The total number of trees planted in state B in 2015 and 2017 was what percentage less than the total number of trees planted in state A in 2014, 2016 and 2017? (Your answer should be correct to one decimalplace.)

Solution

Total number of trees planted in state B in 2015 and 2017 = 118 + 72 = 190

Total number of trees planted in state A in 2014, 2016 and 2017 = 70 + 78 + 92 = 240

=> Required % = $$\frac{(240-190)}{240}\times100$$

= $$\frac{500}{24}=20.8\%$$

=> Ans - (C)
