(Correct to one decimal place.) Correct Answer 34.3%

Average number of scooters in 2016, 2017 and 2019 = (300 + 400 + 380)/3

⇒ 1080/3

⇒ 360

Total number of cars sold in 2017 and 2020 = 500 + 550

⇒ 1050

Required % = (360/1050) × 100

⇒ 34.28%

⇒ 34.3%

∴ The average number of scooters (per year) sold in 2016, 2017 and 2019 is 34.3% of the total number of cars sold in 2017 and 2020 (Correct to one decimal place.)
