Official Explanation
Statement 1: A 9.7% increase in warranty repairs of Norseman washers means there were 1,321/1.097, or about 1,204 warranty repairs in 2014. So there was an increase of 1,321 – 1,204 = 117 warranty repairs in 2015. A 4% decrease in nonwarranty repairs means there were 12,011/0.96, or about 12,511 nonwarranty repairs in 2014. So there was a decrease of 12,511 – 12,011 = 500 nonwarranty repairs in 2015. Therefore, the total number of repairs was less overall.
Answer: False
Statement 2: A total of 16,882 LG washers and 16,074 LG dryers were repaired.
Answer: True
Statement 3: Based on nonwarranty repairs, the highest-ranking appliance is the Norseman refrigerator and the lowest-ranking appliance is the overmaid dryer.
Answer: False
Additional Statement: KitchenAid stoves rank higher in both warranty repairs and nonwarranty repairs than LG stoves, so more KitchenAid stoves were repaired overall.
