The line chart given below shows the ratio of production to sales of two bike-manufacturing firms over the period of 6 years.
Assume if in any year sales is more than production then both the companies has sufficient stock to meet such instances.
The production of company 1 in year 2014 is 18000 and sales of company 2 in year 2012 is 15000. What is the ratio of difference in sales and production of company 1 in year 2014 and company 2 in year 2012 ?
Production of company 1 in year 2014 = 18000
Ratio of production to sales = $$\frac{18000}{s}=0.9$$
=> Sales of company 1 in year 2014 = $$\frac{18000}{0.9}=20000$$
Difference in sales and production = $$20000-18000=2000$$
Similarly, sales of company 2 in year 2012 = 15000
Ratio of production to sales = $$\frac{p}{15000}=0.75$$
=> Production of company 2 in year 2012 = $$0.75\times15000=11250$$
Difference in sales and production = $$15000-11250=3750$$
$$\therefore$$ Required ratio = $$\frac{2000}{3750}=\frac{8}{15}$$
