Explanatory Answer

Method of solving this CAT DILR Question from Analytical Reasoning question

The actual rainfall in Gujarat in 2019 is 20% more than the rainfall in 2009.
So If the actual rainfall in 2009 = x mm
Then the actual rainfall in 2019= 1.2x mm
Actual rainfall in 2019= 600mm
Then, actual rainfall in 2009 = 500mm
As deviation is +25% so average 2009 - 2018 is 600/1.25 = 480
LPA 2019 = (480×10 - 500 + 600 )/10 = 490mm
