Number of shoes sold by salesnan A and D together on Thursday is _____________% more than the number of shoes sold by salesman E on Saturday.

The correct answer is
300

To solve the problem, we need to determine the percentage by which the combined number of shoes sold by salesmen A and D on Thursday is greater than the number of shoes sold by salesman E on Saturday.

  1. First, identify the number of shoes sold by each salesman as per the given table:
    • Salesman A sold 96 shoes on Thursday.
    • Salesman D sold 24 shoes on Thursday.
    • Salesman E sold 30 shoes on Saturday.
  2. Calculate the combined total of shoes sold by salesmen A and D on Thursday.
  3. Now, find out how much more 120 is than 30.
  4. Calculate the percentage increase from 30 to 120.

This means the combined number of shoes sold by salesmen A and D on Thursday is 300% more than the number of shoes sold by salesman E on Saturday.

Therefore, the correct answer is: 300.
