Solution:
2000 - 2001 ---- (933-891)/ 933 * 100 = 4.5 %
2001 - 2002 ---- (891-850)/891 * 100 = 4.60%
2002 - 2003 ---- (850-828)/850 * 100 = 2.58%
2003 - 2004 ---- (828-813)/828 *100 = 1.81%
2004 - 2005 ---- (813-800)/813 *100 = 1.59%
2005 - 2006 ---- (800-760)/800 *100 = 5% (Maximum)
Answer = 5%
2000 - 2001 ---- (933-891)/ 933 * 100 = 4.5 %
2001 - 2002 ---- (891-850)/891 * 100 = 4.60%
2002 - 2003 ---- (850-828)/850 * 100 = 2.58%
2003 - 2004 ---- (828-813)/828 *100 = 1.81%
2004 - 2005 ---- (813-800)/813 *100 = 1.59%
2005 - 2006 ---- (800-760)/800 *100 = 5% (Maximum)
Answer = 5%
