Answer:
It sold 43.57 iPhones for the same quarter in the previous year.
Step-by-step explanation:
It sold 61.0 million iPhone, which is an increase of 40% over the value of the previous year x.
This can be interpreted as:
61 million is 140% = 1.4 of the previous year amount, that is, x. So
[tex]1.4x = 61[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{61}{1.4}[/tex]
[tex]x = 43.57[/tex]
It sold 43.57 iPhones for the same quarter in the previous year.
