Marks: +1, -0

Solution:

Concept:

Use the pie-chart percentage to find Tuesday’s total sale, then divide it in the given ratio.

Explanation:

From the pie-chart, Tuesday’s sale is

13\%

of the total weekly sale.

Total cakes sold on Tuesday

= 13\% \times 8400 = 1092

Given ratio of vanilla cakes to chocolate cakes is

46 : 45

Let the common factor be

x

Then

46x + 45x = 91x = 1092

x = \frac{1092}{91} = 12

Vanilla cakes sold

= 46x = 46 \times 12 = 552
