Answer:

%35 of them were in color

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 30 percent of the first 200 sold were in color, 200x30/100 = 60 of them were in color.

Since 20 percent of the next 300 sold were in color, 300x20/100 = 60 of them were in color.

Since 90 percent of the last 100 sold were in color, 100x90/100 = 90 of them were in color.

In total, 60 + 60 + 90 = 210 out of 600 were in color.

The percentage is:  [tex]\frac{600}{100}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{210}{x}[/tex] → x = [tex]\frac{21000}{600}[/tex] = 35
