The line graph given below shows the total number of TV sold and difference between cell phone and TV sold by five different shops (A, B, C, D and E).
Note – Total cell phones sold by all the shops are more than the total TV sold.
Items = cell phone + TV
If 12.5% of TV sold by D are defective and total items sold by D that are defective is 280. Find the defective cell phones sold by D.
Correct Answer :
185
Solution :
First, let us analyze the line graph to find the total number of TVs sold by shop D:
From the blue line representing Total TV sold, the value corresponding to shop D is 760.
Next, we calculate the number of defective TVs sold by shop D:
It is given that 12.5% of the TVs sold by D are defective.
We are given that the total number of defective items (cell phones + TVs) sold by D is 280.
Therefore, we can find the number of defective cell phones sold by shop D by subtracting the defective TVs from the total defective items:
Thus, the number of defective cell phones sold by shop D is 185.
