To find the percentage of months in which Jim's team sells more than 6 cars, we need to determine the number of months they sold more than 6 cars, and then divide it by the total number of months and multiply by 100.
Let's go step by step:
Step 1: Count the number of months in which Jim's team sold more than 6 cars.
From the provided data, we can see that there are 5 months in which his team sold more than 6 cars. These months are: 8, 7, 9, 8, 7.
Step 2: Determine the total number of months.
Based on the data provided, we can see that Jim's team recorded the number of cars sold for 12 months.
Step 3: Calculate the percentage.
To find the percentage, we divide the number of months they sold more than 6 cars by the total number of months, and then multiply by 100:
(5 months / 12 months) * 100 = 41.67%
So, Jim's team sold more than 6 cars in 41.67% of the months.
