27.5%

Solution :

Correct Answer: 27.5%

To find the percentage of MI TVs sold by shop E compared to LG TVs sold by shop C, we need to determine the exact number of TVs for each brand from the given table data.

Step 1: Find the number of MI TVs sold by shop E
From the table, for shop E:
- Total number of TVs sold (MI and LG) = 250
- Ratio of MI TV : LG TV = 11 : 14

The total number of ratio parts is 11 + 14 = 25.

Now, calculate the number of MI TVs sold by shop E:

Number of MI TVs sold by E = 11 25 Ă— 250 = 110

Step 2: Find the number of LG TVs sold by shop C
From the table, for shop C:
- Total number of TVs sold (MI and LG) = 700
- Ratio of MI TV : LG TV = 3 : 4

The total number of ratio parts is 3 + 4 = 7.

Now, calculate the number of LG TVs sold by shop C:

Number of LG TVs sold by C = 4 7 Ă— 700 = 400

Step 3: Calculate the required percentage
We need to find what percentage 110 (MI TVs sold by shop E) is of 400 (LG TVs sold by shop C):

Required Percentage = 110 400 Ă— 100 = 110 4 = 27.5 %

Hence, the number of MI TVs sold by shop E is 27.5% of the number of LG TVs sold by shop C.
