Question : Annual production of four different types of cold drinks has been tabulated below. Which of these cold drinks has encountered a maximum percentage increment in production?
| Cold Drink | 2020(units) | 2021(units) |
| Sprite | 5400 | 5800 |
| Coca-cola | 5300 | 5600 |
| Pepsi | 6000 | 6800 |
| Fanta | 1800 | 2700 |
Option 1: Coca-cola
Option 2: Pepsi
Option 3: Fanta
Option 4: Sprite
Correct Answer: Fanta
Solution :
The percentage increment in production for each cold drink can be calculated,
Percentage Increment = $\frac{\text{Final Value} - \text{Initial Value}}{\text{Initial Value}} \times 100$
The percentage increment for each cold drink:
1. Sprite : $\frac{5800 - 5400}{5400} \times 100 = 7.41$%
2. Coca-cola : $\frac{5600 - 5300}{5300} \times 100 = 5.66$%
3. Pepsi : $\frac{6800 - 6000}{6000} \times 100 = 13.33$%
4. Fanta : $\frac{2700 - 1800}{1800} \times 100 = 50$%
So, Fanta has encountered the maximum percentage increment in production.
Hence, the correct answer is Fanta.
