1. Agriculture Sector:
- India and Pakistan have a high workforce dependency on agriculture (43% and 41% respectively) but contribute only 16% and 24% to GVA.
- China has low employment in agriculture (26%) but an even lower GVA contribution (7%), showing greater productivity in industry and services. 2. Industry Sector:
- China’s industrial sector contributes 41% to GVA with 28% workforce participation, showing high industrial productivity.
- India’s industrial sector contributes 30% GVA with 25% workforce, while Pakistan lags behind (19% GVA with 24% workforce).
3. Services Sector:
- The service sector is the highest contributor to GVA in all three nations:
- India: 54%, China: 52%, and Pakistan: 57%.
- China employs 46% in services, showing a strong transition from agriculture to services.
- India’s workforce in services (32%) is lower than its GVA share (54%), indicating potential for growth.
Conclusion: - China leads in industrial productivity, while India and Pakistan still rely on agriculture for employment but have a low GVA contribution.
- India’s service sector dominates its economy, but there is a need for more industrial growth to enhance employment.



A ladder of fixed length \( h \) is to be placed along the wall such that it is free to move along the height of the wall.
Based upon the above information, answer the following questions:
(iii) (b) If the foot of the ladder, whose length is 5 m, is being pulled towards the wall such that the rate of decrease of distance \( y \) is \( 2 \, \text{m/s} \), then at what rate is the height on the wall \( x \) increasing when the foot of the ladder is 3 m away from the wall?
