Assume for a moment that August's sales statistics for automobiles in America directly translated to the sales at every dealership. Put it this way: sales of the Mini Cooper range were up 34.1%, thus; every BMW dealer sold 34.1% more Minis than last August. You're following now. Just for curiosity's sake we're going to place some vehicular brands together, and then divide it by - how 'bout 1,000? - to show just how bad life is getting in the automotive sector. Sound like fun? No, it sounds depressing. But it'll do more for you than staring at Numbers that are always followed with a percentage sign.
