Question: what are the total operating expenses as a percentage of sales in 2010?
Evidence:
table_1: ( in millions ) the net sales of 2010 is $ 8246 ; the net sales of 2009 is $ 8654 ; the net sales of 2008 is $ 8027 ;
table_2: ( in millions ) the operating profit of 2010 is 972 ; the operating profit of 2009 is 972 ; the operating profit of 2008 is 953 ;
Program: subtract(8246, 972), divide(#0, 8246)
