The following pie chart shows the ratio of the amount of imports by a company to the amount of exports from that company from 2013 to 2019.
If the imports in 2016 were ₹250 million and the total exports in the years 2016 and 2017 together were ₹500 million, then the imports in 2017 were:
From the pie chart,
Ratio of imports to exports in 2016 = 1.25
Given,
Imports in 2016 = ₹250 million
Let the exports in 2016 = a
$$=$$> $$\frac{250}{a}=1.25$$
$$=$$> $$a=\frac{250}{1.25}$$
$$=$$> $$a=200$$
Exports in 2016 = ₹200 million
The total exports in the years 2016 and 2017 = ₹500 million
$$=$$> Exports in 2017 = 500 - 200 = ₹300 million
Ratio of imports to exports in 2017 = 1.4
$$=$$> Imports in 2017 = $$1.4\times300$$ = ₹420 million
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
