Circle graph:

20% Peas
25% beans
40% Carrots
If 600 people were surveyed, how many more people like carrots than corn?

To find the number of people who like each vegetable, we need to calculate the corresponding percentage of 600 people:

  • Corn: 15% of 600 = 0.15 x 600 = 90
  • Peas: 20% of 600 = 0.20 x 600 = 120
  • Beans: 25% of 600 = 0.25 x 600 = 150
  • Carrots: 40% of 600 = 0.40 x 600 = 240

To find how many more people like carrots than corn, we subtract the number of people who like corn from the number of people who like carrots:

  • 240 - 90 = 150

Therefore, 150 more people like carrots than corn.
