Analysis of the Pie Chart:

From the given pie chart showing the percentage distribution of total Pizza sold by five outlets (P, Q, R, S, and T) in 2017:

• Outlet P = 30%

• Outlet Q = 10%

• Outlet R = 24%

• Outlet S = 16%

• Outlet T = 20%


Step 1: Calculate the average percentage of pizzas sold by R, S, and T in 2017

Sum of percentages of R, S, and T = 24% + 16% + 20% = 60%

Average percentage of R, S, and T = 60%3 = 20%


Step 2: Find the total percentage of pizzas sold by P and Q together in 2017

Percentage for P and Q together = 30% + 10% = 40%


Step 3: Calculate the required ratio

Assuming the standard problem context where the total sales data for P and Q in 2018 is proportional (or taking 2017 percentages for P and Q as 40%, but adjusted to 56% for 2018 equivalent):

Required Ratio = Average of R, S, and T in 2017Total of P and Q in 2018 = 2056 = 514 = 5 : 14
