Question:medium

The following graph shows sales data of two products X and Y from 2015 to 2020 in Kgs. Study the graph of sales data carefully and answer the questions given below:
The sales of product X in 2018 are what percent of the total sales from both products together in the same year?

Show Hint

Add the two 2018 values for the total, then find what share X contributes.
  • 17.85
  • 9.12
  • 53.33
  • 34.77
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Find the share of Y first instead of X. Total sales in 2018 = $40020 + 75070 = 115090$ kg.
Step 2: Share of Y = $75070/115090 \times 100 \approx 65.23\%$.
Step 3: Since X and Y together make up the whole, share of X = $100 - 65.23 = 34.77\%$.
\[\boxed{34.77}\]
