Options:

A . 20%

B . 14.28%

C . 16.66%

D . Cannot be determined

Answer: Option A
:
A

Here, Let total consumption of petroleum products in 2010 is x and in 2011 is y.
Now consider the component where the percentage change between the two years is maximum (this is Kerosene)
To compute minimum growth, 12x = 10y, so x = 10 and y = 12,

Growth = $\frac{y - x}{x}$ = 20%.
