正确答案 · Correct Answer
A
解析 · Solution
Solution 1
During the fall, 4 million hamburgers were sold. Since this is 25%, or of the company's hamburgers sold, a total of million hamburgers were sold in total. Since 4.5 + 5 + 4 = 13.5 million hamburgers were sold in the other three seasons, 16 - 13.5 = 2.5 million hamburgers were sold in the winter.
Let be the number of hamburgers sold in the winter, in millions. Then a total of 4.5 + 5 + 4 + x = 13.5 + x million hamburgers were sold. Since 25% of the hamburgers were sold in the fall, 0.25(13.5 + x) = 4. Solving this equation yields x = 2.5.
