Correct Answer: $13 \frac{1}{3}$%


Solution : The total number of trees planted in 2016 in state A = 78
The total number of trees planted in 2015 in state A = 90
The required percentage $=\frac{90–78}{90}\times 100=\frac{12}{90}\times 100=13 \frac{1}{3}$%
Hence, the correct answer is $13 \frac{1}{3}$%.
