    Answer: 26.15

    Explanation: The degree of operating leverage is calculated as the percentage change in operating income in relation to a percentage change in sales.

    Thus the degree of operating leverage of Gateway inn is calculated thus:

    DOL = Cont Margin/Operating income

    DOL = 47 / (4.6-3.3)

    DOL = 47/1.3

    DOL = 26.15
