Question

The above pie chart shows the percentage of cars sold according to colour. If in a certain period, the total production of all cars was 95400 then how many more blue cars were sold than green?

• A. 2580
• B. 3618
• C. 2850
• D. 3816

Answer 1

The correct option is D 3816

Method :1
Number of blue cars sold $=13\%of95400=\frac{13}{100}\times 95400=12402$
Number of green cars sold $=9\%of95400=\frac{9}{100}\times 95400=8586$
$\therefore$ the difference in number of cars =12402 - 8585 = 3816

Method:2
Required number of cars $=(13-9)\%of95400=4\%of95400=\frac{4}{100}\times 95400=3816$
