Answer:

253

Explanation:

Based on the information provided, last week Kaylee had a total of 13 + 32 + 53 = 98 customers. The proportion of customers who paid with cash is 13/98. If she is expecting 1900 customers next week, we can estimate that about (13/98) * 1900 = 253 customers would pay with cash. Rounded to the nearest whole number, we get 253 customers.
