Question

The Office Store sells printer paper. Last week, the store Sold 324 packs of white paper, which Was 40 % of the paper it sold for the whole week. The store Sold 81 packs of blu paper, 243 packs of yellow paper, and 162 packs of pink paper. The store manager needs to determine the percentages of the other paper sold

Answer 1

First solve the total number of paper sold, so the total packs of paper sold is equal to 324 / 0.40 = 810 packs of paper sold

% blu paper = ( 81 / 810) x 100 = 10 %
% yellow paper = ( 243 / 810 ) x 100 = 30 %
% pink paper = ( 162 / 810 ) x 100 = 20 %
