Answer:

416 people

Explanation:

The way you get the answer is by adding up the number of people from the sample, which gives you 175 people. After finding that you take the number of people who like pretzels (26) and divide it by 175, giving you 0.16 or 16%.
This means 16% of people will like pretzels, so you apply this to the actual number of people coming, 2600, and find 16% of 2600 (0.16 x 2600) which is 416 people. I hope this makes sense :)
