Question

A shop contained some refrigerators and televisions. The total number is 800, and 45% of them were refrigerators. If 60% of refrigerators were sold and 65% of televisions were sold last week. How many fewer refrigerators were sold than televisions?​

Answer 1

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of refrigerators

$\frac{45}{100} \times 800 = 360$

The number of televisions

$800 - 360 = 440$

The number of refrigerators sold

$\frac{60}{100} \times 360 = 216$

The number of televisions sold

$\frac{65}{100} \times 440 = 286$

How many fewer televisions were sold than television?

$286 - 216 = 70$
