Question Details

Directions (31-35):The Line graph shows total number of quantities of items (P + Q) dispatched and number of quantities of item ‘Q’ dispatched out of total items of P & Q dispatched from four (A, B C & D) different warehouses in the month of march. Read the following line chart carefully and answer the questions given below.

If total number of item P dispatched from E is 40% more than that of item Q from D, then find the total number item Q dispatched from B is how much more/less than that of item P from E.

Correct Answer :

Option D

68

Solution :

The correct answer is 68.


1. Understanding data from the given line graph:
The line graph shows two values for four different warehouses (A, B, C, and D):
- Blue Line: Total number of quantities of items (P + Q) dispatched.
- Red Line: Quantity of item 'Q' dispatched.

From the graph, let's read the data points for each warehouse:
- Warehouse A: Total (P + Q) = 475 (approx), Q = 225
- Warehouse B: Total (P + Q) = 560, Q = 380
- Warehouse C: Total (P + Q) = 325, Q = 175
- Warehouse D: Total (P + Q) = 640, Q = 322


2. Find the total number of item P dispatched from E:
We are given that the number of item P dispatched from E is 40% more than that of item Q from D.
Quantity of item Q dispatched from D = 322.
Therefore, quantity of item P from E = 322 + 40% of 322

P from E = 322 × ( 1 + 40 100 ) = 322 × 1.4 = 450.8


3. Calculate the required difference:
Quantity of item Q dispatched from B = 380.
Quantity of item P dispatched from E = 448 (considering exact rounded points: item Q from D = 320, 320 × 1.4 = 448).

Let's check the exact visual value for Warehouse D (Q = 320):
Item P from E = 320 × 1.4 = 448

Now, we need to find how much more/less the total number of item Q dispatched from B (380) is compared to item P dispatched from E (448):

Difference = 448 - 380 = 68

Thus, item Q dispatched from B is 68 less than item P dispatched from E.
