What percentage of the average sales of schools A, B, and C in 2014 is the average sales of schools A, C, and F in 2013?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 81.08%.

Average sales of A, B and C in 2014 = (70 + 35 + 80)/3 = 185/3

Average sales of A, C and F in 2013 = (50 + 60 + 40)/3 = 150/3 = 50

Required percentage = 501853×100{50 \over {185 \over 3}} \times 100  = 150185×100{150 \over 185} \times 100 = 81.08%
