Last year 600 cars and 200 pickup were sold at a car lot . this year the number increased by 12%. in the same time period, the number of the pickups sold decreased 12%. what is the percent of increase of sales at the car lot?

the percent of increase of sales at the car lot is 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cars sold last year is 600.

Number of pickups sold last year is 200.

This year, the number of cars increased by 12%. This means that the amount by which the number of cars that was sold this year increased would be

12/100 × 600 = 0.12 × 600 = 72

Therefore, the number of cars sold this year would be

600 + 72 = 672

This year, the number of the pickups sold decreased 12%. This means that the amount by which the number of pickups that was sold this year decreased would be

12/100 × 200 = 0.12 × 200 = 24

Therefore, the number of pickups sold this year would be

200 - 24 = 176

The total number of vehicles sold last year is 200 + 600 = 800

The total number of vehicles sold this year is 672 + 176 = 848

The amount by which the sales increased would be 848 - 800 = 48

Therefore, the percent of increase of sales at the car lot would be

48/800 × 100 = 6%

the correct answer would be:

220 centimeters

to get this you can use the pythagorean theorem

hope this
