Correct Answer: 318.(3)
Solution: (3) Number of international brands sold in 2011:
Store $B \Rightarrow 1200 \times \frac{15}{100} \times \frac{120}{100}=216$
Store $E \Rightarrow 1200 \times \frac{9}{100} \times \frac{125}{100}=135$
Total bags sold
$=216+135=351$
$\therefore \quad$ Number of domestic brand bags sold
$=\frac{21}{13} \times 351=567$
