The table describes some sales figures gathered by a college bookstore for February, 1998.
We can see from the table that the non-book club member figures are made up of sales to college staff, college students and members of the public. More specifically, college staff bought 332 magazines, 44 fiction and 29 non-fiction books while college students bought 1249 magazines, 194 non-fiction books and 31 fiction books. More magazines were sold to college students than any other group of customers. In contrast, although no fiction books were sold to members of the public, they bought 122 non-fiction books and 82 magazines.
According to the table, book club members bought more fiction(76) and non-fiction books( 942) than other customers. On the other hand, magazine sales to club members( 33) were fewer than to any other type of customers.
The total number of sales for the month was 3134( 1474 to college students, 405 to staff, 204 to the public and 1051 to book club members). 151 books sold were fiction and 1287 were non-fiction. Therefore, it can be clearly seen from the table that magazines accounted for the greatest number of sales( 1696)
