The following table shows the cumulative number of sale of Red Electric Vehicles (EVs) out of the total number of Red and White EVs sold and the cumulative percentage of the total number of EVs sold in five different months from May to September. Based on the data in the table, answer the questions that follow.
Month-wise Sale Distribution of EVs
| Months | Cumulative number of sale of Red EVs | Cumulative percentage of sale of EVs (Red and White in colour) |
|---|---|---|
| May | 360 | 25% |
| Till June | 456 | 41% |
| Till July | 816 | 61% |
| Till August | 1032 | 79% |
| Till September | 1232 | 100% |
Note: Total number of EVs (Red and White) sold in all the 5 months is 2400.
What is the ratio of the number of EVs sold in May and the average number of red and white EVs sold in August?
Total EVs sold in May are 25 percent of 2400, that is 600. In August Red is 216 and White is 216, so their average is 432 divided by 2, which is 216. The ratio is 600 to 216, and dividing both by 24 gives 25 to 9.
