(Production of 3 different flavours of health drinks of a company in 6 years in Lakh bottles)

Question 146

In which of the following years the percentage of rise or fall in production from the
previous year is maximum for the flavour of Q?

Solution

Number of drinks produced of flavour Q (in lakhs) in :

2005 = 55

2006 = 60

2007 = 50

2008 = 55

2009 = 50

2010 = 55

=> % fall or rise in 2006 from the previous year = $$\frac{60-55}{55}$$ * 100

= $$\frac{1}{11}$$ * 100 = 9.09%

=> % fall or rise in 2007 from the previous year = $$\frac{60-50}{60}$$ * 100

= $$\frac{1}{6}$$ * 100 = 16.67% [MAX]

=> % fall or rise in 2008 from the previous year = $$\frac{55-50}{50}$$ * 100

= $$\frac{1}{10}$$ * 100 = 10%

=> % fall or rise in 2009 from the previous year = $$\frac{55-50}{55}$$ * 100

= $$\frac{1}{10}$$ * 100 = 10%

=> % fall or rise in 2010 from the previous year = $$\frac{55-50}{55}$$ * 100

= $$\frac{1}{10}$$ * 100 = 10%
