    The pie-chart shows the percentage sales of Yamaha in 2016 in different states of India.
       

    If total sales of bikes of all brands together increases by 15% in 2017 and the sales of Yamaha in MP increases by 10% keeping percentage distribution of Yamaha in these seven states the same as earlier, then what is the total sales of the bikes of all brands except Yamaha in 2017?

    A)  1920015                      

    B)  156732

    C)  177131            

    D)  295765

    E)  187100

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

     Total sales of all bikes \[=\frac{115}{100}\times 222000\] = 255300 Sales of Yamaha in MP increases by 10% and % distribution remains the same for all other states, means overall % increase in all states together is the same as that in MP, ie 10%. \[\therefore \] New total sales of Yamaha \[=62000\left( \frac{110}{100} \right)\] = 68200 \[\therefore \] Reqd difference = 255300 - 68200 = 187100
