The following line graph shows the number of questions asked from different topics of quantitative aptitude in two shifts of CAT exam. The number of questions asked in shift I from the topic Profit-Loss is what percent more than the number of questions asked in shift II from the topic Average?
Show Hint
When calculating "percent more than", the value that comes after the word "than" is always the base (the denominator) of the fraction.
Step 1: Identify the values from the line graph. - Profit-Loss questions in Shift I (Blue line): 100. - Average questions in Shift II (Orange line): 40.
Step 2: Compute the percentage difference using the formula: \( \frac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Original}} \times 100 \). The baseline is 'Average in Shift II'. Percentage More = \( \left( \frac{100 - 40}{40} \right) \times 100 = \left( \frac{60}{40} \right) \times 100 = 1.5 \times 100 = 150% \).
