Description: What is the ratio of the total export of foodgrain A in 2015, 2016 and 2019 to the total export of foodgrain B in 2016 to 2019?

Solution

Export of A in 2015, 2016, 2019 are
$$320\times\ 0.35=112$$
$$350\times\ 0.30=105$$
$$450\times\ 0.34=153$$
Total : 370

Export of B from 2016 to 2019:
$$200\times\ 0.42=84$$
$$350\times\ 0.34=119$$
$$320\times\ 0.30=96$$
$$300\times\ 0.27=81$$
Total : 308

Their ratio = $$\frac{370}{380}=37:38$$

Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
