Since phones represented 27.5% of all revenue in 2013, you can create the equation: $25 million = .275x, where x = the total revenue in 2013. Solve for x: $25 million/.275 = $90.9 million. Finally, since revenue from computers account for approximately 36% of all revenue in 2013, take 36% of $90.9 million: .36(90.9) = $32.7 million. Among the choices, the value closest to 32.7 million is 32 million
