Correct Answer: Only II


Solution : From the table,
I. The combined sales of P in years A and B is 100 + 200 = 300.
The combined sales of Q in years D and E is 100 + 50 = 150.
So, the ratio of combined sales of P in years A and B to that of combined sales of Q in years D and E is 300 : 150 = 2 : 1
This statement is incorrect.
II. The sales of P in year C is 300.
The sales of Q in year D is 100.
So, the sales of P in year C is 3 times the sales of Q in year D, which is 300%.
This statement is correct.
Hence, the correct answer is Only II.
