Answer:113

Explanation:

You have to add 45 to 45 to get ninety and divide 45 by 2 and get 22.5 and add 22.5 to 90 and get 112.5 and I just rounded it

Answer: 112.5 deserts

Explanation:

From the question, 200 customers buy 45 desserts. This means that 1 customer will buy 45/200 deserts which will be 0.225 deserts.

To get the desserts that will be sold to 500 people, we multiply the desert sold to one person which is 0.225 multiplied by 500. Mathematically, this will be:

= 0.225 Ă— 500

= 112.5 deserts

This means that 112.5 deserts will be sold to 500 people.
