St (1) alone is not sufficient for sure.guerrero wrote:1) Sector E represents 25 % of the total annual marketing budget for company X
2) The total annual marketing budget for company X was $48 million.
Over to St (2): If the pie is drawn to scale and 9.6 happens to be 20% or 1/5 of the total 48, then one can bet that it's the sector A only which can represent 1/5 of the entire pie, what else?
