Respuesta :

Answer: 105

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The number of units 15% sales decline represents is 105.

What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

As the store had projected the sales of the store for this year will be 700 pairs of winter coats. Now, if there is a 15% sales decline then the number of coats that will not be sold can be written as,

[tex]15\%\ of\ 700\\\\ = \dfrac{15}{100} \times 700\\\\=105[/tex]

Thus, the number of units 15% sales decline represents is 105.
