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

Total item sold by E is what percentage more/less than total TV sold by D.

The correct answer is 31.57%.

From the given line graph, we can observe the relevant data points for Shop D and Shop E:

• Total TV sold by Shop D = 760
• Total TV sold by Shop E = 80
• Difference between cell phone and TV sold by Shop E = 360

As stated in the note, the total cell phones sold are greater than the total TV sold. Therefore, for Shop E:

$\text{Cell phones sold by E}=\text{TV sold by E}+\text{Difference between cell phone and TV sold by E}$

$\text{Cell phones sold by E}=80+360=440$

Now, total items sold by Shop E is the sum of cell phones and TVs sold by Shop E:

$\text{Total items sold by E}=\text{Cell phones sold by E}+\text{TV sold by E}$

$\text{Total items sold by E}=440+80=520$

Next, we calculate the percentage by which the total items sold by E (520) is less than the total TV sold by D (760):

$\text{Percentage less}=\frac{\text{Total TV sold by D}-\text{Total items sold by E}}{\text{Total TV sold by D}}\times 100$

$\text{Percentage less}=\frac{760-520}{760}\times 100$

$\text{Percentage less}=\frac{240}{760}\times 100=\frac{6}{19}\times 100$

$\text{Percentage less}=\frac{600}{19}\%\approx 31.5789\%\approx 31.57\%$

Thus, total items sold by Shop E is 31.57% less than total TV sold by Shop D.
