Question
In which of the following years, was the difference in the productions of Companies X and Y, the maximum among the given years ?
Answer: Option D
:
D
The difference between the productions of Companies X and Y in various years are:
For 1997 (139000 - 119000) = 20000.
For 1998 (120000 - 99000) = 21000.
For 1999 (141000 - 100000) = 41000.
For 2000 (128000 - 78000) = 50000.
For 2001 (120000 - 107000) = 13000.
For 2002 (159000 - 148000) = 11000.
Clearly, maximum difference was in 2000. (From the graph, we can be sure that answer is either 1999 or 2000. So we need to calculate only for those two years)
Method-2
Visually,for the year 1997, there is a difference of 1( number of rows)
For 1998, 1
For 1999, 2
For 2001, 2.5 So the highest is for 2000
