    Question

    The following table shows CFC emissions (in million metric tons) from various sectors for an industry for a period of 5 years. Based on the table answer the question given below.

    The contribution of CFC emissions from the fertiliser sector, in comparison to the total CFC emissions from all the sectors, was the least in which year?

    A.

    2015

    B.

    2017

    C.

    2019

    D.

    2016

    Correct option is C

    Formula Used:
    Contribution Percentage (Fertiliser)=Fertiliser Sector EmissionsTotal Emissions from All Sectors×100\text{Contribution Percentage (Fertiliser)} = \frac{\text{Fertiliser Sector Emissions}}{\text{Total Emissions from All Sectors}} \times 100​​
    Solution:
    Year 2015
    Total Emissions = 200 + 500 + 80 + 100 = 880
    Fertiliser Contribution = 500880×100=56.82%\frac{500}{880} \times 100 = 56.82\%​​
    Year 2016
    Total Emissions = 300 + 600 + 90 + 110 = 1100
    Fertiliser Contribution = 6001100×100=54.55%\frac{600}{1100} \times 100 = 54.55\%​​
    Year 2017
    Total Emissions = 320 + 650 + 100 + 120 = 1190
    Fertiliser Contribution = 6501190×100=54.62%\frac{650}{1190} \times 100 = 54.62\%​​
    Year 2018
    Total Emissions = 400 + 700 + 150 + 150 = 1400
    Fertiliser Contribution = 7001400×100=50.00%\frac{700}{1400} \times 100 = 50.00\%​​
    Year 2019
    Total Emissions = 450 + 800 + 200 + 180 = 1630
    Fertiliser Contribution = 8001630×100=49.08%\frac{800}{1630} \times 100 = 49.08\%​​
    Thus,
    The contribution of CFC emissions from the fertiliser sector, in comparison to the total CFC emissions from all sectors, was least in 2019 at 49.08%.
