Question 53396:  I have a pie chart that has Second day air freight 40%, next day air freight 15% and truck 45%. The question is if the company shipped a total of 550 items last month, how many were shipped using second day air freight? McGraw Hill 6th edition, chapter 6, section 5, problem # 12. Thanks so very much for your time!!!

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! I have a pie chart that has Second day air freight 40%, next day air freight 15% and truck 45%. The question is if the company shipped a total of 550 items last month, how many were shipped using second day air freight?  
--------- 
You should find 40% of 550, as follows. 
0.40(550)=220 items were shipped using second day freight.
