What was the percentage increase in Uttar Pradesh's exports from April...
To calculate the percentage increase in Uttar Pradesh's exports from April 2020 to March 2021 to April 2021 to February 2022, we need to compare the export values for these two periods and calculate the percentage difference.
Let's assume the export value for the first period (April 2020 to March 2021) is X, and for the second period (April 2021 to February 2022) is Y.
The percentage increase can be calculated using the formula:
Percentage Increase = ((Y - X) / X) * 100
Now let's calculate the percentage increase using the given options:
a) 10%:
If the percentage increase is 10%, then (Y - X) / X = 10/100 = 0.1
Therefore, Y - X = 0.1X
Y = 1.1X
b) 20%:
If the percentage increase is 20%, then (Y - X) / X = 20/100 = 0.2
Therefore, Y - X = 0.2X
Y = 1.2X
c) 29%:
If the percentage increase is 29%, then (Y - X) / X = 29/100 = 0.29
Therefore, Y - X = 0.29X
Y = 1.29X
d) 35%:
If the percentage increase is 35%, then (Y - X) / X = 35/100 = 0.35
Therefore, Y - X = 0.35X
Y = 1.35X
Comparing the calculated values of Y for each option, we can see that Y = 1.29X for option c) 29% matches the given second period (April 2021 to February 2022).
Therefore, the correct answer is option c) 29%. The percentage increase in Uttar Pradesh's exports from April 2020 to March 2021 to April 2021 to February 2022 is 29%.
