Solution
- In 2002, the sales were Rs 4 crore.
- In 2006, the sales were Rs 8 crore.
- In 2003, the sales were Rs 7 crore.
- In 2005, the sales were Rs 10 crore
- sales in year 2002 = 8 crores
- Sales in year, 2006 = 4 crores
- Difference between the two = 8 − 4 = Rs 4 crore
-
- Difference between the sales of the year 2006 and 2005
= Rs (10 − 8) crores = Rs 2 crores - Difference between the sales of the year 2005 and 2004
= Rs (10 − 6) crores = Rs 4 crores - Difference between the sales of the year 2004 and 2003
= Rs (7 − 6) crore = Rs 1 crore - Difference between the sales of the year 2003 and 2002
= Rs (7 − 4) crores = Rs 3 crores
Hence, the difference was the highest in 2005 as compared to the previous year, 2004.
