The given table shows the production of food grains (in tonnes) in a certain state of India for the period 2016-2020. Study the table and answer the question.

Focd grains year	Wheat	Maize	Rice	Pulses	Beans
2016	410	650	500	390	280
2017	500	700	550	400	250
2018	550	500	580	380	300
2019	510	750	560	500	260
2020	600	800	600	510	300

In the year 2018, the total production of rice and beans is approximately what percentage of the total production of rice and beans in the year 2020?

Correct option is A

Given:

​In 2018:
Rice = 580 tonnes
Beans = 300 tonnes

​In 2020:
Rice =  600 tonnes
Beans = 300 tonnes​

Solution : 

The total production of rice and beans in 2018
Total = 580 + 300 = 880 tonnes

In 2020
Total = 600 + 300 = 900 tonnes

Percentage  = $$\frac{(880)}{(900)}\times 100 = 97.78\%$$​​

The total production of rice and beans in 2018 is approximately 97.8% of the total production in 2020.
