Given bar graph shows, total expenditure and the gross receipts of a company (in ₹ crores). Study the graph and answer the question that follows

If profit = gross receipts — total expenditure, then in 1997-98, what percentage of gross receipts is the profit made?
(Correct to one decimal place)

Solution

From the bar graph,

Gross receipts in 1997-98 = 8200

Total expenditure in 1997-98 = 7700

Profit in 1997-98 = 8200 - 7700 = 500

$$\therefore\ $$Required percentage = $$\frac{500}{8200}\times100$$ = 6.097% = 6.1% (approximately)

Hence, the correct answer is Option D
