Question

A restaurant surveyed consumers to determine if they like hot or cold beverages for breakfast. 60 consumers like hot beverages, and 40 like cold beverages, and 12 neither, how many consumers were surveyed

Answer 1

112

Explanation:

You just have to add all of those numbers

60 +40 =100

100 + 12= 112.

Answer 2

92 people

Explanation:

Since there is 20 people who liked both hot and cold beverages, we can subtract from the people who like hot beverages and people who like cold beverages to find the people who ONLY like hot beverages and the people who ONLY like cold beverages.

People who only like cold beverages:

40 - 20 = 20

People who only like hot beverages:

60 - 20 = 40

Summing it all up:

40 + 20 + 20 + 12 = 92 people total

I hope this helps! :)
