Question

Alicia randomly surveyed people a mall to determine the type of store they planned to go to first.The results of alicia survey are shown in the table based on these results how many of the next 450 people to enter the mall will go to the music store first?

Answer 1

First you have to calculate the percentage of people who enters the music store first. To do that, sum all the values of the table 9 + 7 + 3 + 11 = 30

Then, divide the people who goes to the music store by the total and multiply the result by 100. 7 / 30 *100 = 23.3 %

After this, multiply 23.3 % by 450 to find the people who goes to the music store first. 23.3 /100 *450 = 105.

The answer is 105 people.
