I JUST WANT TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEMS IN THE ABOVE DATA. THANKS

Expert Solution

Mistake I : The data for below vehicle is not uniform....The use of fuels is not uniform for all locations.

Some location it uses petrol , while some location it uses CNG/LPG. It needs to be uniform for same type of vehicles.

	Petrol	Petrol - RSE	Diesel	Diesel - RSE	LPG/CNG/dual fuel/hybrid and other	LPG/CNG/dual fuel/hybrid and other - RSE	Total fuel	Total fuel - RSE
Articulated trucks	0	0	53.5	1.38	0	0	53.5	1.38
Articulated trucks	30.4	100	53.1	1.11	0	0	53.1	1.11
Articulated trucks	0	0	54.7	1.51	0	0	54.7	1.51
Articulated trucks	0	0	57.7	1.32	0	0	57.7	1.32
Articulated trucks	0	0	67.8	1.41	0	0	67.8	1.41
Articulated trucks	0	0	55.5	1.78	46.6	29.11	55.3	1.78
Articulated trucks	0	0	80.5	3.22	71.1	100	79.8	3.21
Articulated trucks	0	0	51.3	1.96	0	0	51.3	1.96
Articulated trucks	30.4	100	56.3	0.6	64	21.59	56.3	0.6

For Non-Freight carring truck -The issue is similar that the use of fuel is not uniform for same type of vehicle at different locations.

	Petrol	Petrol - RSE	Diesel	Diesel - RSE	LPG/CNG/dual fuel/hybrid and other	LPG/CNG/dual fuel/hybrid and other - RSE	Total fuel	Total fuel - RSE
Non-freight carrying trucks	19	11.31	16.9	33.81	20.3	8.84	17	31.95
Non-freight carrying trucks	14	13.38	29.8	20.38	14.3	100	29.5	20
Non-freight carrying trucks	0	0	30.5	20.8	0	0	30.5	20.8
Non-freight carrying trucks	14	100	21.4	14.14	0	0	21.4	14.14
Non-freight carrying trucks	16.6	100	31.1	19.54	0	0	31.1	19.51
Non-freight carrying trucks	13	100	22.6	9.93	0	0	22.3	9.84
Non-freight carrying trucks	14.2	2.86	19	14.47	0	0	18.8	14.02
Non-freight carrying trucks	0	0	19	9.93	0	0	19	9.93
Non-freight carrying trucks	15.5	7.1	25.8	10.59	19.3	11.2	25.6	10.44

The mistake we could observe in the given data is that uniformity of the fuel being used in the vehicle is not appropriate. Rest other information looks to be OK. The major two cases are shown above.
