To find the ratio of total sales of branch C2 in both years to total sales of branch C4 in both years:

1. Extract the sales data from the graph:

  • C2 Sales: 2010: 87 thousand, 2011: 80 thousand
  • Total C2 Sales: 87 + 80 = 167 thousand
  • C4 Sales: 2010: 51 thousand, 2011: 87 thousand
  • Total C4 Sales: 51 + 87 = 138 thousand

2. Calculate the ratio:

Ratio = Total C2 Sales / Total C4 Sales = 167 / 138 ≈ 1.21

Final Answer: The ratio of total sales of branch C2 to branch C4 in both years is 167:138 or approximately 1.21:1.
