Question

If the total GDP of Pakistan is Rs.10,000 crore, then a GDP accounted for by Manufacturing is?

(a) Rs.200 crore
(b) Rs.600 crore
(c) Rs.2,000 crore
(d) Rs.6,000 crore

Answer 1

Hint: To solve this question we will calculate the value of the bar of manufacturing of Pakistan. This can be calculated by subtracting the above and lower levels on the y-axis of the bar of the manufacturing of Pakistan’s bar graph. Then finally, we will multiply it by 100 to get the result in crores.

Complete step by step answer:
We are given that the total GDP of Pakistan is Rs.10,000 crore. We have to calculate the GDP accounted for by manufacturing. We are given the graph as

This question can easily be solved using the given entries in the bar graph. Consider the bar graph of the bar of Pakistan. Now, observe the bar of (block of_ manufacturing, the GDP accounted by manufacturing can be calculated by subtracting the upper value of the block of manufacturing to the lower value of the block of manufacturing of Pakistan. The upper level of the manufacturing block of Pakistan on the y-axis states 80 and the lower level of the manufacturing block of Pakistan on the y-axis states 60. Now, because the y-axis reads as 10 means 1000 crores. The upper level of the manufacturing of Pakistan on the y-axis states 8000 crores and similarly, we will calculate for the lower level.
The lower level of manufacturing the block of Pakistan is obtained as 6000 crores. Hence, finally, we will calculate the GDP accounted by manufacturing in Pakistan as
$$\Rightarrow 8000-6000=2000$$
Therefore, the GDP accounted for by manufacturing in Pakistan is given by 2000 crores.

So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Note: Another way to get the result at the end can be first subtracting 80 and 60 on the y-axis of the graph to get, 80 – 60 = 20 and then calculating the value in crores in the end. Hence, the value of 20 on the y-axis converting into crores would be 2000 crores. This is so as we were given that the total value is 10,000 crores and the value greatest on the y-axis is 100. We have the greatest value which could be 10,000 crores. We have to increase ‘2’ zeroes, $$\Rightarrow 20\times 100=2000$$ crores. Hence, 2000 is the answer.
