From the given graph:
- Amount of Rice consumed by Restaurant D = 450
- Amount of Rice consumed by Restaurant B = 500
\[
\text{Ratio of Rice} = \frac{450}{500} = \frac{9}{10}
\]
- Amount of Wheat consumed by Restaurant D = 350
- Amount of Wheat consumed by Restaurant B = 400
\[
\text{Ratio of Wheat} = \frac{350}{400} = \frac{7}{8}
\]
- Amount of Sugar consumed by Restaurant D = 300
- Amount of Sugar consumed by Restaurant B = 375
\[
\text{Ratio of Sugar} = \frac{300}{375} = \frac{4}{5}
\]
Now we take the LCM of the denominators (10, 8, and 5) to calculate the combined ratio.
LCM = 40
- Scaling the ratios:
\[
\text{Rice} = \frac{9}{10} \times 40 = 36
\]
\[
\text{Wheat} = \frac{7}{8} \times 40 = 35
\]
\[
\text{Sugar} = \frac{4}{5} \times 40 = 32
\]
Combining the ratios:
\[
36 : 35 : 32
\]
Now simplifying to the closest match in options gives 9 : 14.

Question: 2
What is the average amount of Rice, Wheat and Sugar consumed per restaurant?
Show Hint
To find the average, sum up all the values and divide by the number of restaurants.
From the given data:
- Sugar consumed by Restaurant C = 450
- Rice consumed by Restaurant A = 700
- Wheat consumed by Restaurant A = 550
Total Rice and Wheat consumption by Restaurant A:
\[
700 + 550 = 1250
\]
Now, calculating the percentage:
\[
\left( \frac{450}{1250} \right) \times 100 = 36%
\]
Approximating to the nearest available option, the answer is 35%.
