Discussion
How many New Year's greeting cards were sold this year in your shop ?
Statements:
1. Last year 2935 cards were sold.
2. The number of cards sold this year was 1.2 times that of last year.
Answer: D
Correct answer: Both 1 and 2 are sufficient
Statement 1 gives last year’s figure of 2935 and statement 2 the ratio of 1.2, so this year’s sales are 2935 x 1.2 = 3522. Each is useless alone - a base without a ratio, or a ratio without a base - and together they give a single number.
