The following table shows the cumulative number of sale of Red Electric Vehicles (EVs) out of the total number of Red and White EVs sold and the cumulative percentage of the total number of EVs sold in five different months from May to September. Based on the data in the table, answer the questions that follow.
Month-wise Sale Distribution of EVs
| Months | Cumulative number of sale of Red EVs | Cumulative percentage of sale of EVs (Red and White in colour) |
|---|---|---|
| May | 360 | 25% |
| Till June | 456 | 41% |
| Till July | 816 | 61% |
| Till August | 1032 | 79% |
| Till September | 1232 | 100% |
Note: Total number of EVs (Red and White) sold in all the 5 months is 2400.
What is the difference between the number of White EVs sold in June and the number of Red EVs sold in August?
Total EVs are 2400. Cumulative total till May is 25 percent of 2400, that is 600, and till June it is 41 percent, that is 984, so June total is 384. Red in June is 456 minus 360, that is 96, so White in June is 384 minus 96, that is 288. Red in August is 1032 minus 816, that is 216. The required difference is 288 minus 216, which gives 72.
