Answer 2

The answer is the first option

Explanation:

The reason why it is the first option is because if we add up the total amount of things sold (candy, snacks, automotive supplies, and beverages) we would see that together the store sold 500 items. Using that we can diving the amount of candy, snacks, automotive supplies, and beverages by the total amount of things sold to get the percentages.

Ex: 75/500 = 0.15*100 = 15%
100/500 = 0.20*100 = 20%
etc.
