Comprehension:Study the bar-graph given below carefully and answer the questions. Bar-graph given below shows the number of packets of bread sold by five stores of two types i.e. multi grain and whole wheat.
The total number of packets sold by store 'C' is approximately what percent more or less than the total number of packets sold by store 'E' ?
Solution
Total number of packets sold by store C = 80+72 = 152
Total number of packets sold by store E = 84+72 = 156
Hence, percentage less = $$\dfrac{152-156}{156}\times\ 100\%=-\dfrac{4}{156}\times\ 100\%=-2.56\%$$
Among the given options, option (B), $$3\%$$ less is the closest.
So, option (B) is the correct answer.
