Production Increase Calculation: Rice Production 2009 vs 2005
The question asks for the percentage increase in rice production in the year 2009 compared to the year 2005, based on the provided data.
Data Extraction
From the table, we extract the following production figures:
- Production in 2005 = 325 tons
- Production in 2009 = 495 tons
Calculating Production Increase
First, find the absolute increase in production:
Increase = Production in 2009 - Production in 2005
Increase = $495 - 325 = 170$ tons
Percentage Increase Formula
To calculate the percentage increase, use the formula:
Percentage Increase = $\frac{\text{Increase}}{\text{Original Production (2005)}} \times 100\%$
Calculating Percentage Increase
Substitute the values into the formula:
Percentage Increase = $\frac{170}{325} \times 100\%$
Percentage Increase $\approx 0.5230769 \times 100\%$
Percentage Increase $\approx 52.30769\%$
Final Result
Rounding the result to one decimal place, the increased percentage of production in 2009 compared to 2005 is approximately 52.3%.
