Note: Profit = Exports - Imports

What is the percentage increase in the export of all the countries together during the year 1999 to 2001? (rounded off to two digits after decimal).

A) 88.99%

B) 72.39%

C) 38.89%

D) 62.89%

E) 40.60%

Option C

Total export of all countries together in 1999 = 40 +25 + 55 + 60 + 50 + 40 = 270 crore

Total export of all countries together in 2001 = 45 + 50 + 90 + 15 + 100 + 75 = 375 crore

Required % increase

= $\frac{375-270}{270}\times100$ = $\frac{105}{11}\times100$ = 38.88% = 38.89%.
