JAMIA 2026 — Reasoning PYQ

1. Identify the Initial and Final Values:

From the given data table, the bars correspond chronologically to the years from left to right.

• Height of the first bar (Year 2020):

  $$\text{Initial Value}=80$$

• Height of the last bar (Year 2023):

  $$\text{Final Value}=140$$

2. Calculate the Absolute Increase:

$$\text{Increase}=\text{Final Value}-\text{Initial Value}$$

$$\text{Increase}=140-80=60$$

3. Calculate the Percentage Increase:

The percentage increase relative to the first bar is calculated using the formula:

$$\text{Percentage Increase}=\left(\frac{\text{Increase}}{\text{Initial Value}}\right)\times 100$$

Substituting the values into the formula:

$$\text{Percentage Increase}=\left(\frac{60}{80}\right)\times 100$$

Simplify the fraction $\frac{60}{80}$:

$$\frac{60}{80}=\frac{3}{4}$$

Now, compute the percentage:

$$\text{Percentage Increase}=\frac{3}{4}\times 100=3\times 25=75\%$$

Correct Answer

The correct option is (d) 75%.
