- Each bag was sold at the same price. How much was each bag sold for if a total of $1536 was collected from the sale of all skirts?
(a)
To find the greatest increase in sales, look for the steepest increasing slope.
Between Mar and Apr, the increase in the sales of the number of skirts is the greatest.
(b)
Total number of skirts sold from January to June
= 36 + 32 + 8 + 32 + 36 + 48
= 192
(c)
Amount that each skirt was sold for
= 1536 ÷ 192
= $8
Answer(s): (a) Mar and Apr; (b) 192; (c) $8
