Answer:

The answer is C. 73.205 records

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2012, 50.000 records were sold. If every following year the number of records increased 10%, with means that the sales of every following year were 1.1 times the sales of the year before, then we know that:

  • In 2012 the sales were 50.000
  • In 2013 the sales were 50.000 x 1.1= 55.000
  • In 2014 the sales were equal to the sales of 2013 times 1.1, with means sales= 55.000 x 1.1 =60.500
  • In 2015 the sales were equal to the sales of 2014 times 1.1, with means sales= 60.500 x 1.1 =66.550
  • In 2016 the sales were equal to the sales of 2015 times 1.1, with means sales= 66.550 x 1.1 =73.205
