What percent of the average sales branches B1, B2 and B3 in 2001 is the average sales of branches B1, B3 and B6 in 2000?

Discuss
Solution:
Total sales (in thousand numbers) of branches B1, B3 and B6 in 2000
= 80 + 95 + 70
= 245
Average sales (in thousands number) of branches B1, B3 and B6 in 2000
= 2453
Total sales (in thousands number) of branches B1, B2 and B3 in 2001
= 105 + 65 + 110
= 280
Average sales (in thousand number) of branches B1, B2 and B3 in 2001
=2803So,Required percentage=24532803×100%=245280×100=87.5%

If the total number of students in the university in the year 2007 was 455030, the total number of students who opted for the given three subjects was approximately what percent of the total students?

Discuss
Solution:
In 2007, we have:
Total number of students = 455030
Number of those choosing the given three subjects
= 15000 + 10000 + 15000
= 40000
∴ Required percentage
=(40000455030×100)%=8.79%9%
