Line Graph

Step 1: Calculate the total items sold by Shop C

From the line graph for shop C:

Total TV sold by shop C=680

Difference between Cellphone and TV sold by shop C=400

Since total cell phones sold are more than total TV sold for all shops:

Total Cell phones sold by shop C=TV sold+Difference

Total Cell phones sold by shop C=680+400=1080

Therefore, the total items (Cell phone + TV) sold by shop C is:

Total items sold by C=680+1080=1760

Step 2: Calculate the total items sold by Shop F

Total items sold by Shop F is 20% more than that sold by Shop C:

Total items sold by F=1760×1+20100

Total items sold by F=1760×1.2=2112

Step 3: Find the number of TV sold by Shop F

The ratio of total TV sold to cell phone sold by shop F is given as 7 : 15.

Total ratio parts=7+15=22

Number of TV sold by shop F=2112×722

Number of TV sold by shop F=96×7=672

Thus, the total number of TV sold by Shop F is 672.
