based on the information given below.
The retail prices of flowers, consumer expenditure on flowers and sales of flowers for the calendar year 2009, in Phoolgaon, a small town with a population of 70000, is summarized in table 3:
Expenditure on roses in January = 1136916
Price of roses per dozen = 99
Roses sold = 1136916/99
        =11484 dozens
Expenditure on roses in July = 1188432
Price of roses per dozen = 144
Roses sold = 1188432/144
        =8253 dozensÂ
Sales of roses in July as compared to January = [(8253-11484)/11484]*100
                                  = - 28.13%
Since Change is negative, there is a decrease of 28.13%.
Hence B is the correct answer.
