Analyse the given data for exports and imports of rubber in Rs. crores from 2006 to 2017 and answer the questions based on the analysis.
The percentage decline in exports during the period 2006-2011 is more than the percentage decline in exports during 2012-2017 by approximately
Percentage decline during the 2006 to 2011 period = (Difference between exports in 2006 and 2011 / 2006 exports) * 100
Percentage decline during the 2006 to 2011 period = $$\dfrac{280-220}{280}\times100=21.42\%$$
Percentage decline during the 2012 to 2017 period = (Difference between exports in 2012 and 2017 / 2012 exports) * 100
Percentage decline during the 2012 to 2017 period = $$\dfrac{210-200}{210}\times100=4.76\%$$
Thus, the first percentage is more than the second percentage by $$21.42-4.76=16.66$$, which is approximately $$16.5$$.
