Approximately 1700 megawatts of electricity could be supplied by Hydropower in 2017. Option B is correct.
Given that,
In 2017 there were enough renewable energy sources to supply a total of 9309 megawatts of electricity in a country. The graph shows the proportions that the different renewable energy sources could supply.
<h3>What are percentages?</h3>
the percentage is the ratio of the composition of matter to the overall composition of matter multiplied by 100.
Here, from the graph contribution of the hydropower is 18.2%.
So the electricity produced through hydropower is,
= 9309 * 18.2%
= 9309 * 18.2/100
= 1694.23
≈ 1700 megawatts
Thus, approximately 1700 megawatts of electricity could be supplied by Hydropower in 2017.
