Show Answer

Correct Answer: (3)

Solution: (3)

Total number of SUVs given to state $3=32 \%$ of 700 $=224$

Total number of diesel engine SUVs given to state-3 $=224 \times\left(\frac{5}{8}\right)=140$

Total number of SUVs given to state $2=28 \%$ of $700=196$

Number of petrol engine SUVs given to state- $2=196 \times\left(\frac{9}{14}\right)=$ 126

Required difference $=140-126=14$
