Problema Solution

Three of every seven sales transactions at Dollar Discount are on credit cards. What percent of the transactions are NOT credit card sales? (Round percentages to the nearest tenth.)

Answer provided by our tutors

Okay,

 

The solution is this,

 

100% sales divided by 7 transaction = 14.285% is each transaction weight.

 

3 credit card transactions = 42.857%

4 non credit card transactions = 57.142%

 

Rounding it to the nearest tenth is required because,

 

42.857% + 57.142% = 99.999%
