Product A sells 2.5 times more than Product B. Product B sells 40% less than Product C. Product C sold 41,000 units this month. How many units of Product A were sold?

We are given three products: A, B, and C. Here's the information provided:

- Product A sells 2.5 times more than Product B.
- Product B sells 40% less than Product C.
- Product C sold 41,000 units this month.

### Step 1: Determine how many units Product B sold.
Product B sells 40% less than Product C. This means Product B sells \( 60\% \) of what Product C sells (because 100% - 40% = 60%).

\[
\text{Units of Product B} = 0.60 \times 41,000 = 24,600
\]

### Step 2: Calculate how many units Product A sold.
Product A sells 2.5 times more than Product B. Therefore:

\[
\text{Units of Product A} = 2.5 \times 24,600 = 61,500
\]

### Final Answer:
Product A sold **61,500 units**.

Here are some related questions:
1. What if Product B sold 30% less than Product C instead of 40%?
2. How many units would Product A sell if Product C sold 50,000 units?
3. What is the total number of units sold by Products A, B, and C combined?
4. How would you solve the problem if Product A sold 3 times more than Product B?
5. What would the result be if Product B sold exactly the same number of units as Product C?

**Tip:** When a percentage decrease is given, subtract that percentage from 100% to find the remaining portion.

Learn how to calculate the number of units sold for Product A when Product B sells 40% less than Product C, and Product A sells 2.5 times more than Product B. Given that Product C sold 41,000 units, the final solution shows Product A sold 61,500 units. Suitable for students in Grades 6-8.
