Average production of table fans from Monday to Wednesday = \(\frac{240+510+390}{3}\) = \(\frac{ 1140}{3}\) = 380 Average production of table fans from Thursday to Saturday = \(\frac{ 150 + 300 + 450 }{3}\) = \(\frac{ 900}{3}\) = 300 Required percentage = \(\frac{380 - 300 }{300}\) × 100 = \(\frac{80 }{300}\) × 100 = 26.7% |
