Step-by-step explanation:
For each color scarf, you are to develop three numbers:
- the percentage of sales represented by that color
- the number of scarves of that color from a total of 1800
- the number of scarves of that color from a total of 12000
You are given a table listing the number of scarves of that color from a total of 200.
1. The percentage is the given number divided by 2, with a % sign added.
... for red, 50/200 = 25/100 = 25%
... for purple, 15/200 = 7.5/100 = 7.5%
2. The number of scarves from a total of 1800 will be 9 times the given number.
... for blue, 30/200 = 270/1800, so 270 blue scarves should be ordered
... for white, 70/200 = 630/1800, so 630 white scarves should be ordered
3. The number of scarves from a total of 12000 will be 60 times the given number.
... for green, 25/200 = 1500/12000, so 1500 green scarves should be ordered
... for yellow, 10/200 = 600/12000, so 600 yellow scarves should be ordered
