Correct Answer: 2005
Solution :
The percentage increase in the export of apples in 2003 = $\frac{6.5-5.2}{5.2}$ × 100 = 25%
The percentage increase in the export of apples in 2005 = $\frac{9.9-7.8}{7.8}$ × 100 = 26.92%
The percentage increase in the export of apples in 2006 = $\frac{10.8-9.9}{9.9}$ × 100 = 9.09%
The percentage increase in the export of apples in 2008 = $\frac{11.4-9.5}{9.5}$ × 100 = 20%
The maximum percentage increase in the export of apples to that of the previous years is in 2005.
Hence, the correct answer is 2005.
