B. $$9\frac{1}{11}$$ %
C. $$13\frac{5}{7}$$ %
D. $$4\frac{7}{11}$$ %
E. $$12\frac{1}{7}$$ %
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Total export of country T= 60 + 50 + 55 + 100 + 110
= 375
Average export of country T
= $$\frac{375}{5}$$
= Rs. 75 crore
Total export of country R
= 50 + 55 + 70 + 90 + 65
= 330
Average export of country R
= $$\frac{330}{5}$$
= Rs. 66 crore
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore \text{ Required } \% \cr & = \frac{75 - 66}{66}\times100 \cr & = \frac{9}{66}\times100 \cr & = \frac{150}{11}\% \cr & = 13\frac{7}{11}\% \cr} $$
