The total daily sales of newspaper P in cities B, D and E is what percentage less than that of newspaper Q in cities A, C, D and E?

Options:

20.2

24.4

20.8

22.5

Correct Answer:

22.5

Explanation:

Total daily sale of P in B , D & E = 560 + 750 + 550 = 1860

Total daily sale of Q in A , C , D & E = 450 + 650 + 680 + 620 = 2400

required percentage = \(\frac{2400 - 1860}{2400}\) × 100

= \(\frac{ 540 }{2400}\) × 100

= 22.5%
