Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Total sales of Branch A2 in 2006 = 75 (in thousands)
Total sales of Branch A2 in 2007 = 65 (in thousands)
Total sales of Branch A4 in 2006 = 95 (in thousands)
Total sales of Branch A4 in 2007 = 85 (in thousands)
Formula used:
Ratio = (Total sales of A2) : (Total sales of A4)
Calculation:
Total sales of Branch A2 = 75 + 65 = 140 (in thousands)
Total sales of Branch A4 = 95 + 85 = 180 (in thousands)
⇒ Ratio = 140 : 180
⇒ Simplify ratio = 7 : 9
∴ The correct answer is 7 : 9 (option 1).
