How Many Adult-Size Electric Scooters Were Sold in June?

In June, the company sold a total of 80 scooters, including both electric and kick scooters in adult and child sizes. To determine how many adult-size electric scooters were sold, we need to break down these sales using the given ratios.

First, let's understand the overall sales distribution between electric scooters and kick scooters. The ratio of electric scooters sold to kick scooters sold is 3:1. This means for every 4 scooters sold, 3 were electric and 1 was a kick scooter.

Next, we calculate the number of electric scooters sold by breaking the total number into parts based on the ratio:

• Total scooters sold = 80


• Ratio parts (3 electric + 1 kick) = 4 parts


• Each part = 80 scooters / 4 = 20 scooters

Thus, the number of electric scooters sold = 3 parts * 20 scooters/part = 60 scooters.

Now, we need to further break down the electric scooters into adult-size and child-size categories. The ratio of adult-size electric scooters to child-size electric scooters is 4:1. This means for every 5 electric scooters sold, 4 were adult-size and 1 was child-size.

Next, we calculate the number of adult-size electric scooters sold by using this ratio:

• Total electric scooters sold = 60


• Ratio parts (4 adult + 1 child) = 5 parts


• Each part = 60 scooters / 5 = 12 scooters

Thus, the number of adult-size electric scooters sold = 4 parts * 12 scooters/part = 48 scooters.

Therefore, the company sold 48 adult-size electric scooters in June.
