The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

The production of polyethylene:
Least produced = 20
Max Produced = 108
Difference between least and max produced = 88
The production of polypropylene:
Least produced = 16
Max Produced = 21
Difference between least and max produced = 5
The ratio between polyethylene and polypropylene = \(\frac{88}{5}\)
= 17.6
The correct option is (C)

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

maximum production of polyethylene was in January 2004-2005 = 100
minimum production of polyethylene was in February 2003-2004 = 20
The Ratio is = \(\frac{100}{20}\)
= 5

Verified By Collegedunia

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The least production of polypropylene in 2004-2005 was = 17.8
The least production of polypropylene in 2003-2004 was = 15.4
Difference between these two year = 17.8 - 15.4 = 2.4
July production = 90 - 84 = 6
The difference in July’s production of polyethylene= \(\frac{2.4}{6}\) = 0.4
The correct option is (D)
