Answer: 1/10 of the store's total sales last month were in appliances (lower right corner)
=============================================
Explanation:
Let's go through the four possible answers
In the upper left corner it says "Total mobile phone sales is likely 27,000" which is a paraphrase of what is given. The chart gives 9000 as the phone sales for that one particular store. If all stores are identical in performance, then we have 4*9000 = 36000 in total mobile phone sales. Of course, it's impossible to know for sure how the other stores did. So we can eliminate this as one of the answers.
In the upper right corner, it says "13% of the stores sales was in car electronics" (also paraphrased). We have 13 thousand in car electronics out of 17+13+6+9+15 = 60 thousand total. Divide the two values: 13/60 = 0.2167 = 21.67% approximately. So we can eliminate this as an answer.
In the lower left corner, it says "the total sales is likely greater than $300,000" but we don't know for sure because again we don't have the other charts for the three other stores. Assuming the four stores perform the same, then we'd have 4*60 = 240 thousand as the total and not 300 thousand. It's safe to say we can eliminate this as an answer.
In the lower right corner, it says "1/10 of the stores sales were appliances". This statement is true. Why? Because 6 thousand is the sales figure for appliances out of 60 thousand total. Divide the values: 6/60 = 1/10. So this is why the lower right corner is the answer.
If the metal strip goes around the bench, then we are looking for the perimeter.
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(9) + 2(4)
P = 18 + 8
P = 26 feet
Then, we know that the stripping costs $5 per foot, and we need 26 feet of the stripping.
26 x 5 = 130
Total cost = $130
Hope this helps!
X = 21
Hope this helped :)
I believe its 27.75. I wouldn't take my word for it though.
90 people!
27/90=0.3
0.3x100= 30%
Hope that helped! :)
