______%

选项

答案108.7

解析 If A is the dollar amount of sales at Store T for 2007, then 8 percent of A, or 0.08A, is the amount of decrease from 2007 to 2008. Thus A - 0.08A = 0.92A is the dollar amount for 2008. Therefore, the desired percent can be obtained by dividing A by 0.92A, which equals= 1.0869565…Expressed as a percent and rounded to the nearest 0.1 percent, this number is 108.7%. Thus the correct answer is 108.7%(or equivalent).
