On Days 1 through 4 of a recent week, Product X was out of stock at Retailer R. Day 1 shoppers are those shoppers who came to Retailer R on Day 1 of that week seeking Product X. For each of the first 3 days of that week, the graph shows the subsequent behavior of all the Day 1 shoppers who came to Retailer R seeking Product X on that day. Shoppers at Retailer R who purchased a different item in lieu of Product X paid an average of 30% more for the item.

% of Day 1 shoppers returned to the store on Day 3.
Shoppers at Retailer R who purchased substitute items from other manufacturers on Day 1 paid a total amount that was approximately % of the total all Day 1 shoppers would have paid had each of them been able to purchase Product X on Day 1.
1. ____________% of Day 1 shoppers returned to the store on Day 3.
Let's assume the no. of shoppers on Day 1 be 100. Currently we are concerned with only the %age of shoppers who returned on Day 2 and Day 3.
Now the no. of shoppers who returned the Day 2 = 25% of 100 = 25. Of this 19% returned on Day 3 = 4.75 ~ 5. => 5 people returned on DAY 3 = 5% of the total shoppers on Day 1. Thus, % of Day 1 shoppers who returned to the store on Day 3 Between 1 & 10.
Answer is B.
2. Shoppers at Retailer R who purchased substitute items from other manufacturers on Day 1 paid a total amount that was approximately______________% of the total all Day 1 shoppers would have paid had each of them been able to purchase Product X on Day 1.
Little tricky since the line to read again is: the total all Day 1 shoppers Let's assume the no. of shoppers on Day 1 be 100. Now, let the price of each Product X be 100.
60% of total day 1 shoppers purchased a different item at 130. Thus total = 130*60. Now had all been able to purchase the Product X, the total would have been: 100*100.
what we are asked: 130*60 = what % of (100*100). = 78%
1)B,Let total number of shoppers on day 1= x So the number returned on Day 2= 0.25x,Now of these 19% returned on Day 3= .19*.25x=.0475x ,which means roughly 5% of total returned on day 3 so it's between 1 and 10.
2)B,so here let total shoppers for Day 1= x
Now those who purchased items from other store= .6x Amount of each article y so aince these people purchased from other store they got individual price as = 1.3y So total price = .6x*1.3y
Now had all people purchased from x= x*y So the ratio is .6x*1.3y/xy=.78 =78%
According to the graph and the accompanying text, 25% of the Day 1 shoppers returned on Day 2, and 19% of those shoppers subsequently returned on Day 3. Thus, on Day 3, 100(.25)(.19) = 4.75% of Day 1 shoppers returned to the store.
The correct answer is Between 1 and 10.
Day 1 shoppers who purchased an item in place of Product X paid, on average, 130% of the amount that they would have paid for Product X. According to the graph, 60% of Day 1 shoppers chose to buy an alternative product on Day 1. The total spent by these shoppers, as a fraction of the total all Day 1 shoppers would have spent had each instead bought Product X, is \(\frac{(60)(130)}{(100)(100)} = \frac{7,800}{10,000}\), or 78%.
On Days 1 through 4 of a recent week, Product X was out of stock at Retailer R. Day 1 shoppers are those shoppers who came to Retailer R on Day 1 of that week seeking Product X. For each of the first 3 days of that week, the graph shows the subsequent behavior of all the Day 1 shoppers who came to Retailer R seeking Product X on that day. Shoppers at Retailer R who purchased a different item in lieu of Product X paid an average of 30% more for the item.
From each drop-down menu, select the option that creates the most accurate statement based on the information provided.
1. ____________% of Day 1 shoppers returned to the store on Day 3.
A. Fewer than 1 B. Between 1 and 10 C. More than 10
2. Shoppers at Retailer R who purchased substitute items from other manufacturers on Day 1 paid a total amount that was approximately______________% of the total all Day 1 shoppers would have paid had each of them been able to purchase Product X on Day 1.
For the question 1, 1. ____________% of Day 1 shoppers returned to the store on Day 3.
A. Fewer than 1 B. Between 1 and 10 C. More than 10
I understand that on Day 1 there are 25% of the shoppers who return the Day 2 = 25% of 100 = 25. But we don't how many people in 25% decide to return on Day 3. All of them may not return to Day 3 (0%) or Most of them may return to Day3 (thus, it is possible that No. of Day1 shoppers may be still 25 or greater than 10)
For blank 1, the question is asking what percentage of the people on Day1, who did not make a purchase, returned the next day, retuned on day 2 but still did not make a purchase, retuned the next day. Let s be the total number of shoppers on Day 1. 25% did not make a purchase, retuned the next day- 0.25x On day 2, 19% still did not make a purchase and returned the next day ie out of 0.25x 19% retuned on day 3. 0.25x * 0.19 ~0.05x. Since the answer is a percentage, it will be ~5% so between 1 and 10.
For blank 2, the question is asking the percentage of the amount spent by 60% of the people in Day 1 in comparison to the amount that all the people on day1 would have spent had product X been available. The cost of different item is 1.3 times product X. Let the cost of product X be c and the total number of shoppers on day 1 be s. The percentage = 0.6*1.3*cs/cs = 0.78*100= 78%
