The given bar graph shows the strength of employees (in lakhs) of a company during four different years.
Formula used:
'A' increased what percent of 'B' = (A - B) / B × 100.
Calculation:
Employees in 2019 = 32 lakhs
Employees in 2020 = 34 lakhs
Employees in 2020 increased over 2019 by,
⇒ (34 - 32) / 32 × 100
⇒ 2 / 32 × 100
⇒ 100 / 16
⇒ 25 / 4
⇒ \( 6 \frac{1}{4} \% \)
∴ The correct answer is \( 6 \frac{1}{4} \% \).
