Hi there! So 39,300 copies of a book were sold on debut month of release, and that represents 6.3% of all copies sold to date. To find the total amount of copies sold, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
39,300/x = 6.3/100
We set it up like this because 39,300 is part of the total amount, and it represents 6.3% of the total book sales. Percents are parts of 100, which is why 6.3 is above 100. Let's cross multiply the values. 39,300 * 100 is 3,930,000. 6.3 * x is 6.3x. that makes 3,930,000 = 6.3x. Divide each side by 6.3 to isolate the x. 6.3x/6.3 cancels out. 3,930,000/6.3 is 623,809.5238 or 623,810 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The total amount of copies sold to date is about 623,810.

Answer:
0.2231 (22.31%)
Step-by-step explanation:
defining the event F = the marketing company is fired, then the probability of being fired is:
P(F)= probability that the advertising campaign is cancelled before lunch * probability that marking department is fired given that the advertising campaign was cancelled before lunch + probability that the advertising campaign is launched but cancelled early * probability that marking department is fired given that the advertising campaign is launched but cancelled early .... (for all the 4 posible scenarios where the marketing department is fired)
thus
P(F) =0.10 * 0.74 + 0.18 * 0.43 + 0.43 * 0.16 + 0.29*0.01 = 0.2231 (22.31%)
then the probability that the marketing department is fired is 0.2231 (22.31%)
16 1/3 is bigger than 1/4
