Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Option 1
To find the approximate percentage of production of company X in 2016 compared to that in 2013, follow these steps:

Identify the production values for company X from the graph:

In 2013, the production of company X is 6 lakh units.
In 2016, the production of company X is 8 lakh units.
Use the percentage formula to find the approximate percentage:

Percentage
=
(
Production in 2016
Production in 2013
)
×
100
Percentage=(
Production in 2013
Production in 2016

)×100

Substitute the given values into the formula:

Percentage
=
(

Percentage=(

Approximate this percentage to the nearest whole number, which becomes 133%.

Therefore, the production of company X in 2016 is approximately 133% of that in 2013. The correct answer is 133%
