Question 71

The pie chart given below shows the imports of 7 different items P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6 and P7 as a percentage of total imports of a country.

Imports of item P6 is how much percent more than the imports of item P5?

Solution

Let total imports be x units
Then, Imports of P5 = 12% of x = 0.12x
Imports of P6 = 21% of x = 0.21x
Then, Required percentage = $$\dfrac{0.21x-0.12x}{0.12x}\times100 = \dfrac{0.9x}{0.12x}\times100 = \dfrac{3}{4}\times100 = 75$$%
