Question

If a = percentage drop in BSE sensex in eighth period compared to ninth period and b = period increase in NSE in fourth period compared to fifth period, then what will be the relationship between a and b?

• A. a < b
• B. a > b
• C. a = b
• D. Cannot be determined
• E. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B a > b

$a=\frac{4470-4290}{4290}\times 100=4.19\%$
$b=\frac{1300-1250}{1250}\times 100=4.0\%$
Hence, a > b
