Answer:

14.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

let total be 100 parts

out. 100

/. \

25%. 75%

25% were sail boats

75% were non sailboats

in 75% of non sailboats 3/5 are new

75*3/5= 45 % are new boats

33% out of total ie 100 boats are used

so ratio of sailboats : non sailboats

25:75ie 1:3 = 33 %

ie 4parts = 33 ie 1 part = 33/4 = 8.25

100

/. \

8.25. 3*8.25 = 24.75

in 24.75 the new one are 24.75*3/5 = 14.85 %
