Answer 1

B 521521

To calculate the number of yearbooks sold this year, we first need to find 120% of last year's sales:

120% of 465 = 1.20 * 465 = 558

Then, we add this to last year's sales to find the total number sold this year:

465 + 558 = 1023

Therefore, 1023 yearbooks were sold this year.
