In Example 4, store D sold 385 articles and store B sold 275 articles. By what percentage is store D's sale more than store B's sale?

Show answer

40%

First find the difference: 385 - 275 = 110. Then use Percentage increase = (difference/original) × 100%. So (110/275) × 100% = 40%. The answer is 40%.

In Example 4, the two highest selling stores sold 385 and 365 articles, and the two lowest selling stores sold 215 and 235 articles. What is the ratio of the total sale of the two highest selling stores to the total sale of the two lowest selling stores?

Show answer

5:3

Add the two highest sales: 385 + 365 = 750. Add the two lowest sales: 215 + 235 = 450. Now form the ratio 750:450. Divide both terms by 150 to simplify: 5:3. So the ratio is 5:3.
