The line graph shows the percentage growth in the sugar output of a mill in Kolhapur over the PREVIOUS year. The output in 2019 was 5,000 tonnes. What was the output in 2022?

Question

Accepted Answer

6,930 tonnes. Each year grows on the year before: 5000 × 1.10 = 5500 (2020), × 1.20 = 6600 (2021), × 1.05 = 6930 (2022). Adding the rates (35\%) gives the wrong 6750.
