Show Answer
Correct Answer: (4)
Solution: (4) Total number of SUVs for state $3=32 \%$ of $700=224$
Number of petrol engine SUVs for

Total number of SUVs for state$1=14 \%$ of $700=98$
Number of diesel engine SUVs for state- $1=98 \times\left(\frac{3}{7}\right)=42$
Required per centage
$$ =\left(\frac{(84-42)}{42}\right) \times 100=100 \% $$
