Question 98

Refer the data table below and answer the following question ?

If the imports in 2012 was Rs. 1000 crores and the total exports in the years 2012 and 2013 together was Rs. 3200 crores, then the imports in 2013 was? 

Imports in 2012 = Rs. 1000 crores

Let Exports in 2012 = Rs. $$y$$ crores

Ratio of imports and exports in 2012 = 1.1

=> $$\frac{1000}{y} = 1.1$$

=> $$y = \frac{1000}{1.1} = 909.09$$

Total exports In the years 2012 and 2013 together = Rs. 3200 crores

=> Exports in 2013 = Rs. (3200 - 909.09) crores = Rs. 2290.91 crores

Let imports in 2013 = Rs. $$x$$ crores

Ratio of imports and exports in 2013 = $$\frac{x}{2290.91} = 0.9$$

=> $$x = 2290.91 \times 0.9 = 2061.819 \approx 2062$$

$$\therefore$$ Imports in 2013 was Rs. 2062 crores

=> Ans - (A)
