Wheat production of a country over a number of years is shown. Which year recorded highest percent reduction in production over the previous year?
To determine the year with the highest percent reduction in wheat production over the previous year, we need to calculate the percentage decrease for each year compared to its preceding year.
- From the image:
- 2000: 50 metric tons
- 2001: 45 metric tons
- 2002: 40 metric tons
- 2003: 35 metric tons
- 2004: 30 metric tons
- Calculate the percentage reduction for each year:
- 2001: \(\frac{50 - 45}{50} \times 100 = 10\%\)
- 2002: \(\frac{45 - 40}{45} \times 100 = 11.11\%\)
- 2003: \(\frac{40 - 35}{40} \times 100 = 12.5\%\)
- 2004: \(\frac{35 - 30}{35} \times 100 = 14.29\%\)
- Identify the year with the highest reduction:
- 2004 shows the highest percentage reduction of 14.29% over the previous year.
Therefore, the year 2004 recorded the highest percent reduction in wheat production over the previous year.
Important Questions from Data Interpetation (Notes)
- Answer the question on the basis of the informations given below :
Three different climatic factors for four cities in India are shown in the following table :City Average Annual Rainfall (in mm) Average Annual Temperature (in degree centigrade) Maximum humidity in the year A 75 21 126 B 86 17 130 C 68 17 160 D 70 24 150
If humidity factor is defined as average annual rainfall divided by average annual temperature for the cities, the humidity factor is highest for which city ?
