Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : 26.7%

Calculation:

Total consumption of coffee in state D from 2014 to 2016 = 105 + 140 + 144 = 389 hundred tonnes

Total consumption of coffee in states A, B, C and E in 2015 = 122 + 138 + 150 + 120 = 530 hundred tonnes

∴ Required percentage = (530 - 389)/530 × 100 = 26.70%
