The table illustrates the total
sales
made during the
day
for a particular week in October from
lunch
and
dinner
. It is clear from the data that
dinner
made far more
sales
than
lunch
. Out of the seven days, Friday had been the most successful for the business
whereas
Sunday turned out to be the least effective
day
for the restaurant. On average,
dinner
made roughly $1000 more from the
lunch
.
In contrast
to other days of the week, when compared the
sales
during weekends were significantly low, dropping under $3,000 during the night and $2,000 in the afternoon. The average
sales
during other days was around $2,500 for
lunch
and $3,700 for
dinner
. The most popular
day
for the business was Friday as the
sales
were relatively high both during the afternoon and night. The least effective
day
for the restaurant had to be Sunday as the
sales
were lowered by $2,000 for both
lunch
and
dinner
combined.
