Question

A survey shows that 67% of peanut butter lovers prefer chunky-style. Out of 850 people surveys, how many can be predicted to say they prefer chunky-style peanut butter?

Answer 1

ANSWER: 569.5
All you have to do is make you % into a decimal is multiply by 850

Hope this helps :-)

Answer 2

I like to use this formula cause it's really useful when it comes to these problems:

Part Percent

________ = _________

Whole 100

So, you basically plug in the numbers into the equation, it's really easy:

??? 67%

________ = ________

850 100

Then, you cross multiply. 67% x 850 = 56,950 / 100 =

And the answer to your question is: 569.6 or rounded is 570.
