In a city, the total number of cars sold across all showrooms is 5000. Showroom B accounts for 22% of the total sales, and showroom D accounts for 9% of the total sales. What is the total number of cars sold from showrooms B and D combined?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 1550
Total cars sold = 5000
Cars sold by B = 22% of 5000 = 22/100 × 5000 = 1100
Cars sold by D = 9% of 5000 = 9/100 × 5000 = 450
Total cars sold by B and D = 1100 + 450 = 1550
