Download Solution PDFGiven:
Sales of branch A3 in 2020 = 95 (in thousand numbers)
Sales of branch A3 in 2021 = 105 (in thousand numbers)
Sales of branch A4 in 2020 = 110 (in thousand numbers)
Sales of branch A4 in 2021 = 105 (in thousand numbers)
Formula Used:
Total Sales = Sales in 2020 + Sales in 2021
Ratio = Total Sales of branch A3 : Total Sales of branch A4
Calculation:
Total sales of branch A3 for both years = 95 + 105 = 200 (in thousand numbers)
Total sales of branch A4 for both years = 110 + 105 = 215 (in thousand numbers)
Ratio of the total sales of branch A3 to the total sales of branch A4 = 200 : 215
Simplify the ratio by dividing both sides by their greatest common divisor, which is 5:
Ratio = 200 ÷ 5 : 215 ÷ 5
Ratio = 40 : 43
∴ The ratio of the total sales of branch A3 for both years to the total sales of branch A4 for both years is 40 : 43.
