How to calculate the sales of the segment <5€ in this case?

Hello, 

Could someone tell me how to calculate the segment <5€? In this case, it is recommended that this segment is terminated and we need to calculate it. The solution is given as 88.5 million €, but i do not find information in the graphs or in the text to calculate it. 

Thank you. 

Best, Felix

Hi Felix,

in table 1 you can find the revenue of 590M and in diagram 1 the split by segment is given, stating 15% for <€5.

€590M *0,15 = €88,5M

Best,

John
