Album 1 sold 540 CD copies and was downloaded 470 times. So, in total, it was sold

[tex]540+470=1010[/tex]

times. So, the percentage of CDs is

[tex]\dfrac{540}{1010}\cdot 100=53.5\%[/tex]

Similarly, the total of digital downloads is

[tex]470+452=922[/tex]

Which means that the percentage represented by album 2 is

[tex]\dfrac{452}{922}\cdot 100=49\%[/tex]

Now, we already saw that album 1 sold [tex]53.5\%[/tex] of copied as CD, implying that the remaining [tex]46.5\%[/tex] are downloads. A similar computation for album 2 gives the following percentage of downloads:

[tex]\dfrac{452}{452+571}\cdot 100 = 44.18\%[/tex]

So, album 1 had the highest percentage of download selling.

Answer:

The percentage of copies of album 1 sold as CDs is  

53 %. (*note answer would be 53.5% but if you read it says to round your answer to nearest WHOLE number, that would make it 53%)

Of the total digital downloads sold,  

49 % were of album 2.

The record label sold a higher percentage of album  

1  as digital downloads than album 2
