Say A = number of sales made by salesperson X in June, C = number of sales made by salesperson Y in June, and D = number of sales made by salesperson Y in May.
In June, salesperson X made 50 percent more sales transactions than salesperson Y did in May:
\(A = 1.5D\)
In June, salesperson Y made 25 percent more sales transactions than he made in May:
\(C = 1.25D\)
The ratio of the number of sales transactions made by salesperson X in June to the number of sales transactions made by salesperson Y in June:
\(\frac{A }{ C} = \frac{1.5D }{ 1.25D} = 6/5\)
In June, salesperson X made 50 percent more sales transactions than salesperson Y did in May:
\(A = 1.5D\)
In June, salesperson Y made 25 percent more sales transactions than he made in May:
\(C = 1.25D\)
The ratio of the number of sales transactions made by salesperson X in June to the number of sales transactions made by salesperson Y in June:
\(\frac{A }{ C} = \frac{1.5D }{ 1.25D} = 6/5\)
