Re: The table gives information on the total inventory and the total items [#permalink]
i) More than half of the tools listed were hand-powered=Out of 21 items listen , 11 are hand powered so true

ii) Of the 10 top-selling tools, fewer than half were hand-powered- Out of 10 top items, only 4 are handpowered so true

iii) More of the tools listed were made of metal and plastic combined than were made of plastic alone- 2 are made of metal + plastic and 2 are made of plastic alone , hence false

Re: The table gives information on the total inventory and the total items [#permalink]
Part 1: More than half of the tools listed were hand-powered.

Number of hand powered tools = 11
Total number of listed tools = 21

Hence, the answer is TRUE.

Part 2: Of the 10 top-selling tools, fewer than half were hand-powered.

Number of hand powered tools in top 10 sales = 4

Hence, the answer is TRUE.

Part 3: More of the tools listed were made of metal and plastic combined than were made of plastic alone.

Tools made of metal and plastic combined = 2
Tools made of plastic alone = 2

Hence, the answer is FALSE.
