During a certain two-week period, 72 percent of the movies rented from a video store were comedies, and of the remaining movies rented, there were 6 times as many dramas as action movies. If no other movies were rented during that two-week period and there were A action movies rented, then how many comedies, in terms of A, were rented during that two-week period? Options:
A) 1/20 A
B) 10 A
C) 15 A
D) 18 A
E) 23 A
Movies: 72 % comedies. 28 % remaining genre.   Now in this 28 %, there are only 2 categories. Action movies and Drama Movies.   If Action = x; Drama movies = 6x. Total 7x.   7x = 28; x = 4   Action movies: 4 %   Drama movies: 24 %   we can say that out of 100z,:   comedies: 72z   action: 4z   drama: 24 z   Now action movies were A   This means:   A = 4z.   z = (A/4)   Comedies: 72z = 72 * (A/4)   18 A   18 A is the answer.
