I have a pie chart whose data given like below
Percentage share of various brands in the diaper market :
Others =10 %
Brand C= X%
Brand B =Y%
Brand A =15%
Home Made= 50%
Note : sales of Brand B and Brand C are in the ratio 3:2 and 2% of the population uses home-made diapers
Question :
when we say Brand A = 15 % above ...what it means ?
does it mean 15 % of population uses brand A ?
does it mean 15 % of the total diapter used by the population is Brand A
does it mean sales of brand A is 15% in overall sales ?
or what would be the correct way of interpretation ?
can anybody explain it ..please
thank you
Why did you post this in the politics forum?
Oh yeah...because you always find that both diapers and politicans end up full of ****.
I'd say overall sales.
We don't know if all the diapers are being used. In fact there's boxes and boxes of diapers sitting in peoples home that will never get used for one reason or another...but they were sold.
Curious tintin...what did you get for the answer for what B and C equals?
