Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
The production of product D in 2021 was 15 thousand units, and in 2024 it was 27 thousand units.
The difference is 12 thousand units. To find the percentage by which production in 2021 is less than that in 2024, calculate (12/27) × 100 ≈ 44.44%. This is approximately 44%.
