Answer:

C. 105 pieces of jewelry

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Percentage of sales, Ps = 42%.

Total number of jewelry, T= 250.

To find the pieces of jewelry sold for the day, we would multiply the the total number of jewelry by the percentage of sales;

[tex] Pieces \; sold = Ps * T[/tex]

[tex] Pieces \; sold = \frac{42}{100}*250[/tex]

[tex] Pieces \; sold = 0.42 * 250[/tex]

Pieces sold = 105 jewelry.

Therefore, 105 pieces of jewelry were sold.
