Solution(By Examveda Team)
Store | Nokia Cellular Phones | Samsung Cellular Phones | Total Number of Cellular Phones |
P | 896 | 672 | 1568 |
Q | 840 | 280 | 1120 |
R | 1120 | 896 | 2016 |
S | 1568 | 1344 | 2912 |
T | 448 | 1792 | 2240 |
U | 704 | 640 | 1344 |
Number of Nokia phones sold by store R = 1120
Number of Samsung phones sold by store P and Q together
= 672 + 280
= 952
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore \text{Required percentage} \cr & = \frac{1120-952}{952}\times100 \cr & = \frac{16800}{952}\% \cr & = \frac{300}{17}\% \cr & = 17\frac{11}{17}\% \text{ more} \cr} $$
