Here are the calculations for the deliveries.

Part 3.1· 2 steps

Draw the table below on your answer sheet, find the total number of deliveries made and fill in the last column by calculating the percentage of total deliveries made to each region.

  1. Calculate the total number of deliveries.

    Sum all deliveries from each region:

    240000+170000+150000+95000+60000+50000+40000+30000+25000=860000240000 + 170000 + 150000 + 95000 + 60000 + 50000 + 40000 + 30000 + 25000 = 860000

    The total number of deliveries is 860000.

  2. Calculate the percentage of total deliveries for each region.

    Percentage for a region = Deliveries for regionTotal Deliveries×100%\frac{\text{Deliveries for region}}{\text{Total Deliveries}} \times 100\%

    • Gauteng: 240000860000×100%≈27.91%\frac{240000}{860000} \times 100\% \approx 27.91\%
    • Western Cape: 170000860000×100%≈19.77%\frac{170000}{860000} \times 100\% \approx 19.77\%
    • KwaZulu-Natal: 150000860000×100%≈17.44%\frac{150000}{860000} \times 100\% \approx 17.44\%
    • Eastern Cape: 95000860000×100\frac{95000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 11.05\%
    • Free State: 60000860000×100\frac{60000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 6.98\%
    • Limpopo: 50000860000×100\frac{50000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 5.81\%
    • Mpumalanga: 40000860000×100\frac{40000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 4.65\%
    • North West: 30000860000×100\frac{30000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 3.49\%
    • Northern Cape: 25000860000×100\frac{25000}{860000} \times 100% \approx 2.91\%

    Here is the completed table:

Part 3.2

29.86%\text{29.86\%}

Suppose the number of deliveries was increased by 10% in Gauteng whilst the others remained the same in September 2025. Calculate the new percentages of deliveries in Gauteng.

  1. Calculate the new number of deliveries for Gauteng.

    Original deliveries for Gauteng = 240000.
    Increase = 10%10\% of 240000=0.10×240000=24000240000 = 0.10 \times 240000 = 24000.
    New deliveries for Gauteng = 240000+24000=264000240000 + 24000 = 264000.

  2. Calculate the new total number of deliveries.

    Deliveries for other regions (excluding Gauteng) remain the same:
    170000+150000+95000+60000+50000+40000+30000+25000=620000170000 + 150000 + 95000 + 60000 + 50000 + 40000 + 30000 + 25000 = 620000.
    New total deliveries = New Gauteng deliveries + Sum of other regions' deliveries
    New total deliveries = 264000+620000=884000264000 + 620000 = 884000.

  3. Calculate the new percentage of deliveries for Gauteng.

    New percentage for Gauteng = New Gauteng deliveriesNew Total Deliveries×100%\frac{\text{New Gauteng deliveries}}{\text{New Total Deliveries}} \times 100\%

    =264000884000×100%= \frac{264000}{884000} \times 100\% ≈29.86425%\approx 29.86425\% ≈29.86%\approx 29.86\%

    The new percentage of deliveries in Gauteng is \boxed{\text{29.86%}}.
