Refer the below data table and answer the following question.

What was the revenue of the company if it expenditure was Rs. 675 crore in the year when it's % profit was the least ?

Solution:

Profit % was least in 2014 = 5%
Let revenue = Rs. x crore and expenditure = Rs. 675 crore
⇒ Profit % =

{x-675}/675×100=5

⇒

{x-675}/675=5/100=1/20

⇒

20x − 13500 = 675

⇒

20x = 675 + 13500 = 14175

⇒

x=14175/20=708.75
