    Question

    The following bar graph shows the sales (in thousands) of magazines from six branches (A, B, C, D, E and F) of a publishing company during two consecutive years 2021 and 2022.

    What percent of the average sales of branches A, B and C in 2022 is the average sales of branches A, C and F in 2021?

    A.

    86.2%

    B.

    88.4%

    C.

    87.5%

    D.

    82.3%

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Sales in 2021,
    A = 80, B = 75, C = 95, D = 85, E=75, F=70
    Sales in 2022,
    A = 105, B = 65, C = 110, D = 95, E = 95, F = 80
    Concept Used:
    Average =  (Total sum of values)(Total number of values)\frac{(Total \ sum \ of \ values)}{(Total \ number \ of \ values)}​​
    Percentage = (Given number)(Total number)×100% \frac{(Given \ number)}{(Total \ number)}×100 \%​​
    Solution:
    Average sales of A, B, C in 2022 = (105+65+110)3=2803\frac{(105 + 65+110)}{3} = \frac{280}{3}​​
    Average sales of A, C, F in 2021 = (80+95+70)3=2453\frac{(80 + 95+70)}{3}=\frac{245}{3}​​
    Now,
    Percentage = (2453)(2803)×100\frac{(\frac{245}{3})}{(\frac{280}{3})}×100%​
    245280×100%\frac{245}{280}×100 \% 

    = 87.5%​
