Question

the All-star appliance shop sold 10 refrigerators, 8 ranges, 12 freezers, 12 washing machines, and 8 clothes dryers during January. Freezers made up what part of the appliances sold in January?

Answer 1

Freezers made up
`(6)/(25)` = 24% of the appliances sold in January.

Explanation:

We have that:

10 + 8 + 12 + 12 + 8 = 50 parts were sold in January.

Freezers made up what part of the appliances sold in January?

12 of those were freezers, so:

`(12)/(50) = (6)/(25) = 0.24`

Freezers made up
`(6)/(25)` = 24% of the appliances sold in January.
