    Explanation:
    It is clear from the pie chart that the cost of production of both the medicines together by company X5  = (27% of 75) crores
    Similarly, we have (from the pie chart) that the production of both the medicines together by combinations of companies is as follows:
    (i) (X1 + X3) = [(11% + 12%) of 75] crores = (23% of 75) crores
    (ii) (X6 + X7) = [ (8% + 22%) of 75] crores = (30% of 75) crores
    (iii) (X4 + X7) = [(15% + 22%)of 75] crores = (27% of 75) crores
    which is same as that for company X5.
    (iv) (X2 + X6) = [(15% + 8%) of 75] crores = (23% of 75) crores
