Answer 1

To help Its sales, the company should focus on producing Large

T-shirts. Approximately 80% of T-shirts the company

makes should be medium and large T-shirts to match the market preference. If the total number of T-shirts sold in a month is 45,000, 3,300

of these will likely be size small.

Explanation:

In the survey, Large t-shirts are most frequently bought so they should be the primary focus if the company is trying to make more money.

To find the percentage of shirts that the medium and large shirts make up, first you find the total amount of shirts (11+37+83+19=150), then you will find how many mediuma and large shirts (37+83=120). Percentage is (120/150)*100=80%

To find the number of small shirts you can set up a proportion.

`(11)/(150) =(x)/(45,000)`, then cross multiply

150x=11*45,000

150x=495,000

x=3,300
