The following table shows the weight (in kg) of vegetables sold by 6 different shops. It also shows the weight (in kg) of tomatoes sold out of the total vegetables sold by each of these shops.

Taking shops S1, S2 and S5 together, approximately what percentage of all vegetables sold, from these three shops taken together, are tomatoes?

24.10%

Tomatoes sold from S1 , S2 and S5 = 1200 + 1000 + 1800 = 4000

Total vegetables sold from S1 , S2 and S5 = 5000 + 6000 + 5600 = 16600

required percentage = \(\frac{4000}{16600}\) × 100

= 24.10%
