A restaurant has three locations, all about the same size, within the city. The graph shows last month\'s sales figures for one of the locations. Which statement is best supported by the information in the graph? Salads made up 14% of this restaurant\'s total sales for last month. Sandwiches made up 1/5 of this restaurant\'s total sales for last month. The total salad sales for all three locations was likely $15,000 last month. The total sales for all three locations last month was likely greater than $250,000.
Solution
total sale at 1 location= 18 + 20 + 14 + 12 + 5
= 69 thousand dollar
sale of sald at 1 location= 5 thousand dollar
percentae sale made by salad = 5*100/69 =7.2 %
sale of salad at 3 location = 3*5 thousand dollar
= 15 thousand dollar
sale of sandwiches= 20 thosand dollar
fraction of sale by sandwiches = 20 / 69 = 0.29
total sale at all 3 locations = 3*69 thousand dollar
= 207 thousand dollar
Answer:
the total salad sales for all three locations was likely $15000 last month.
