Question

By what percentage was the output of the Manufacturing levels of the Mining and Quarryin sector take place?

• A. 84%
• B. 91%
• C. 98%
• D. Indeterminate

Answer 1

The correct option is B 91%

Let manufacturing in 1989 = 200 and Chemicals in 1989 = 100
$\Rightarrow$ Manufacturing in 1991:
200 $\times$ 1.04 $\times$ 1.01 = 210
and Chemicals in 1991:
$100\times 1.07\times 1.03=110Required\%=\frac{210-110}{110}\times 100=90.91\%$
