          Brand 'C' Country-wise sales

Question 82

By what percentage should global sales of 'C' phone increase, so that its sales volume in korea becomes 7000 units, while the volume of sales to all other countries remains the same?

Solution

Volume of sales of brand C in korea = 14% of 47,000 = 6580

To make it 7000 we need to add 420 to it. 

Percentage increase in sales of C phone = $$\frac{420}{47000} \times 100 = 0.9$$(approx)

Hence, option B is the correct answer.
