Study the graph of the production of laptops by three different companies namely A, B and C over the years.

In which year was the difference in production (in percentage) maximum between company C and B?

Correct option is B

Given:

The production of laptops by three different companies namely A, B and C over the years

Formula Used:

Percentage =$$\frac{Part\ Value}{Total\ Value} \times 100$$​​

Solution:

The difference in production of laptops between company B and C over the years:

In the year 1 the difference is = 50 - 45 = 5 thousands

Difference as the percentage of B =$$\frac{5}{45} \times 100 = 11.11\%$$​​

In the year 2 the difference is = 55- 45 = 10 thousands

Difference as the percentage of C $$= \frac{10}{45} \times 100 = 22.22\%$$​​

In the year 4 the difference is = 50 - 40 = 10 thousands

Difference as the percentage of C =$$\frac{10}{40} \times 100 = 25\%$$​​

In the year 6 the difference is = 55- 40 = 15 thousands

Difference as the percentage of B = $$\frac{15}{40} \times 100 = 37.5\%$$​​

So the difference is maximun in the year 6
