Question

A club surveyed its members to decide on food for an event. Out of 125 members surveyed, 89 preferred pizza, 23 of those preferring punch. In all, 52 members preferred punch. Enter your answer in the boxes to complete the two-way table based on the given data

Answer 1

`\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Prefer Pizza}&\text{Do not Prefer Pizza}&\text{Total}\\\text{Prefer Punch}&23&29&52\\\text{Do not Prefer Punch}&66&7&73\\\text{Total}&89&36&125\end{array}`

Explanation:

There are 125 members.

89 of them preferred pizza and 23 of 89 preferred punch, so 89-23=66 preferred only pizza.

52 members preferred punch, 23 of them preferred both pizza and punch, so 52-23=29 preferred only punch.

Now,

66 members preferred only pizza,

23 members preferred both,

29 members preferred only punch,

125-66-23-29=7 members did not prefer both

The two-way table is

`\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Prefer Pizza}&\text{Do not Prefer Pizza}&\text{Total}\\\text{Prefer Punch}&23&29&52\\\text{Do not Prefer Punch}&66&7&73\\\text{Total}&89&36&125\end{array}`
