In all the four zones of India, the sales of scooters (in percentage) in four categories are as given in the chart. If the sale under category 1 is 4593 and under category 3 is 3297, then what percentage east zone of category 1 is of west zone of category 3. Correct Answer 109.02%

Formula used:

Sale = Percentage of total sale

Calculation:

Percentage east zone of category 1 = 18 %

Sale under category 1 = 4593 

Sale under east zone = (18% of 4593)

= (18 × 4593)/100

= 826.74

Percentage of west zone of category 3 = 23%

Sale under category 3 = 3297

Sale under west zone = (23% of 3297)

= (23 × 3297)/100

= 758.31

Total sale of east zone of category 1 and west zone of category 3 = 826.74 + 758.31

= 1585.05

Total sale of category 1 and category 3 = 7890

The percentage of the east zone of category 1 is of the west zone of category 3 = (826.74/758.31) × 100

= 109.02 %

Hence, "109.02%" is the correct answer.
