    If in 2017, the total sales of Yamaha increased by 10%, while its sales in UP increased by 28% and that in Odisha increased by 21% then what is the approximate increase in sales in the rest of the states?

    A)  354                             

    B)  250

    C)  350                             

    D)  254

    E)  276

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Total sales of Yamaha in 2017 \[=62000\times \frac{110}{100}=68200\] Total sales of Yamaha in UP \[=62\times 1000\times \frac{23}{100}\times \frac{128}{100}\] \[=18.2528\times 1000=18252.8\approx 18253\] Sales of Yamaha in Odisha \[=62\times 1000\times \frac{15}{100}\times \frac{121}{100}=11.2530\times 1000\] \[=11253\] Thus, total new sales in UP and Odisha = 18253 + 11253 = 29506 units Previous overall sales in all states except UP and Odisha \[=62000\times \frac{62}{100}=38440\] \[\therefore \] Reqd increase in sale in other states = (68200-29506) - 38440 =68200 - 67946 =254
