Question

Study the bar graph and answer the given questions. Two types of hats sold by seller A and Seller B in five days
Q. The total number of hats sold by A and B together on Wednesday is how much percentage more than the number of hats sold by A and B together on Tuesday?

• A. $15\frac{2}{3}\%$
• B. $8\frac{1}{3}\%$
• C. $16\frac{2}{3}\%$
• D. $15\frac{1}{3}\%$
• E. $21\frac{3}{7}\%$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $16\frac{2}{3}\%$

Total hats sold on Wednesday = 64+48 = 112
Total hats sold on Tuesday = 60+36 = 96
Percentage difference = $\frac{112-96}{96}\times 100$
$=16\frac{2}{3}\%$
