Store A Laptop Sales Comparison: May vs. March

The question asks to find the approximate percentage that the number of Laptops sold by store A in May represents out of the number sold in March.

Identify Sales Figures

From the provided table:

  • Laptops sold by Store A in March = 440
  • Laptops sold by Store A in May = 408

Calculate Percentage

To find the percentage, use the formula:

$Percentage = (Part / Whole) * 100$

In this case:

$Percentage = (Sales in May / Sales in March) * 100$

Perform Calculation

Substitute the values:

$Percentage = (408 / 440) * 100$

Calculate the division:

$408 / 440 = 0.927272...$

Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage:

$0.927272... * 100 = 92.7272...%$

Approximate Result

Rounding the result to two decimal places gives 92.73%. This matches option C.
