Correct Answer: 38.63%


Solution : As per the given graph:
The total number of mobile phones sold in 2014 = 4 + 4.5 + 6 + 7.5 = 22
The total number of mobile phones sold in 2016 = 7.5 + 6 + 7.5 + 9.5 = 30.5
The increase in sales of mobile phones sold in 2016 to 2014 = 30.5 – 22 = 8.5
The required percentage = $\frac{\text{The increase in sales of mobile phones sold in 2016 to 2014}}{{\text{The total number of mobile phones sold in 2014}}}× 100$
The required percentage = $\frac{\text{8.5}}{{\text{22}}}× 100=38.63\%$
Hence, the correct answer is 38.63%.
