- How many sweaters were sold from July to December?
- Each bag was sold at the same price. How much was each bag sold for if a total of $936 was collected from the sale of all sweaters?
(a)
To find the greatest increase in sales, look for the steepest increasing slope.
Between Nov and Dec, the increase in the sales of the number of sweaters is the greatest.
(b)
Total number of sweaters sold from July to December
= 20 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 20 + 44
= 104
(c)
Amount that each sweater was sold for
= 936 ÷ 104
= $9
Answer(s): (a) Nov and Dec; (b) 104; (c) $9
