Correct Answer: 3,300


Solution : As per the given chart,
If the total sale of the chocolate flavour is Rs. 5,160.
$\frac{\text{Vanilla sales}}{\text{Chocolate sales}} = \frac{\text{Vanilla percentage}}{\text{Chocolate percentage}}$
Substituting the given values into the equation,
$\text{Vanilla sales} = \frac{\text{Vanilla percentage}}{\text{Chocolate percentage}} \times \text{Chocolate sales} $
$⇒\text{Vanilla sales} =\frac{16.5}{25.8} \times 5160$
$\therefore$ Vanilla sales = Rs. 3300
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 3,300.
