Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1) 53%

Part 2) 44%

Part 3) The record label sold a higher percentage of album 1 as digital downloads than album 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total sales of each album

Album 1:

$540+470=1010$

Album 2:

$571+452=1023$

Part 1)

In order to find the percentage of copies of album 1 sold as CDs, we need to create a fraction with the number of CD sales over the total number of sales

$\frac{540}{1010} =0.534\\\\0.534*100=53.4\\\\53$

Part 2)

We must now do the same thing with the number of digital downloads for album 2

$\frac{452}{1023} =0.441\\\\0.441*100=44.1\\\\44$

Part 3)

We can now do this again with the number of digital downloads for album 1 and compare it to the answer in Part 2

$\frac{470}{1010} =0.465\\\\0.456*100=46.5\\\\47$

As the % for album 1 is 47% while the % for album 2 is 44%, album 1 sold a higher percentage of digital downloads than album 2
