Directions: Answer the following questions based on the information g...
Total number of units sold in the month of September = 6300
Number of units sold by company B in July = 1500
Number of units sold by company B in September = 1500 + 1500 (60%)
= 1500 + 900
= 2400
Ratio = Number of units sold by company B in August/Number of units sold by company B in September
Let the number of units sold by company B in August be x.
3:4 = x/2400
x = 1800
Number of units sold in May by company A = 1800 + 1800(7/9)
= 1800 + 1400
= 3200
Number of units sold in August by company A = 2400 + 2400 (1/8)
= 2700
Number of mobile phones sold by company B in May = (2/3)(2/3)(6300)
= 2800
Number of units sold by company B in May = 3200 - 3200(1/8)
= 3200 - 400
= 2800
Number of units sold by both companies A and B together in October = 6300 + 6300 (1/9)
= 6300 + 700
= 7000
Total number of units sold in August = 2700 + 1800
= 4500
Number of units sold by company A in September = 6300 - 2400
= 3900
Total units sold in the month of May = 3200 + 2800
= 6000
Number of units sold in June by company A = 6000 - 6000(1/6)
= 6000 - 1000
= 5000
Number of units sold in July by company A = 5000 - 5000 (20%)
= 5000 - 1000
= 4000
Total number of units sold by company A = 3200 + 5000 + 4000 + 2700 + 3900 + 2100
= 20900
Ratio = Number of units sold by company B in June/Number of units sold by company A in October
Let the number of units sold by company A in October be x.
5:3 = 3500/x
x = 2100
The data can be presented in the table as follows:
Number of mobile phones sold by company B in May = 2800
Number of units sold by company A in August = 2700
Number of units sold by company A in June = 5000
Total = 2700 + 5000
= 7700
Percentage = (2800/7700) X 100
= 36.36%
Hence, option e is correct.
