1. You have the following information:

- 520 people were surveyed to determine their favorite vegetable.
- They figure attached shows that 32% of that people selected carrots.

2. Keeping the information above on mind, you have:

520=100%
x=32%

520 people-----100%
x-----32%

x=(520x32)/100
x=16640/100
x=166 people

How many people selected carrots?

The answer is the option "c", which is:

c. 166
