Study the given bar graph and answer the questions that follows.
In 2020, the production of wheat increased over 2019 by the same percentage as in
2018 over its preceding year. If 16.5% of the production of wheat in 2020 was exported,
then the amount of wheat left for domestic consumption (in lakh tonnes) was
approximately:
Solution
Percentage by which wheat production increased in 2018 over 2017 = $$\frac{400-330}{330}\times\ 100\ =\ 21.21\%$$.
Production in 2020 = (1 + 21.21%)*Production in 2019 = 1.2121*360 = 436.36.
16.5% of this production is exported which means that 83.5% was left for domestic use i.e. 0.835*436.36 = 364.36 $$\approx\ $$ 364.4
