Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

The number of customer in 2009 is 6.15% the number of customer in 2008

Explanation:

Given as :

Let the number of customers ordered coffee in 2008 = x

So, 5% of customers ordered coffee in 2008 = 5% of x =
`(x)/(20)`

Again The number of customer 2009 increased to 23% from 2008

So, The number of customer in 2009 =
`(x)/(20)` + 23% of
`(x)/(20)`

I.e The number of customer in 2009 =
`(x)/(20)` (
`(123)/(100)`

∴ The number of customer in 2009 = 1.23 ×
`(x)/(20)`

Or, The number of customer in 2009 = 0.0615 x

Hence The number of customer in 2009 is 6.15% the number of customer in 2008 Answer
