Question

C) Which of the items had the greatest increase in sales over the 3 years ? Give a reason for your answer

Answer 1

Answer: Tablets because they increase in sales by 467%

Step-by-step explanation:

The item with the greatest increase is the one that has the highest percentage increase in the 3 years.

Each box represents 20 units sold.

Desktop Computers:

= (2017 sales - 2015 sales) / 2015 sales * 100%

= (160 - 100) / 100 * 100%

= 60%

Laptops:

= (280 - 160) / 160 * 100%

= 75%

Tablets:

= (340 - 60) / 60 * 100%

= 467%
