The following bar graph shows the number of coolers sold by shopkeepers A and B in different years. Study the graph and answer the question that follows. 

The total number of coolers sold by shopkeeper B in 1995 and 1998 together is approximately what percentage more/less than the total number of coolers sold by the shopkeeper A in 1996 and 1997 together?

A.

4% less

B.

6% more

C.

6% less

D.

4% more

Correct option is A

Solution:

By Shopkeeper B

1995 = 1620, 1998 = 1600

Total (1995 + 1998) = 1620 + 1600 = 3220

by Shopkeeper A

1996: 1500,1997: 1750

Total (1996 + 1997) = 1590 + 1750 = 3340 

Percentage = 334032203220×100=3.72%4%\frac{3340 - 3220}{3220} \times 100 = 3.72\% \approx 4\%​ 

As Shopkeeper A sell more than Shopkeeper B 

Thus, Shopkeeper B sold 4% less than A
