    Solution

    ATQ, Total sales of A for two years = 650 + 700 = 1350 Total sales of D for two years = 350 + 450 = 800 Total sales of A and D for two years = 1350 + 800 = 2150 Total sales of B for two years = 450 + 550 = 1000 Total sales of C for two years = 350 + 400 = 750 Total sales of B and C for two years = 1000 + 750 = 1750 ⇒ Required percentage = (2150/1750) × 100 = 122.86 ∴ Required percentage = 122.86%
