Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Solution: Find the ratio of the deficit of the first five deficit countries to the overall deficit.
Total deficit of all deficit countries = 3594.3 + 2588.5 + 334.2 = 6517.0.
Total deficit of the first five deficit countries = 4885.2 (this is the sum of the first three = 3594.3 and the next two = 1290.9 taken from the next group).
Required ratio = 4885.2 ÷ 6517.0 ≈ 0.7496, which is approximately 0.75.
Final answer: 0.75 (closest value).
