Answer:

37 people received a gift card over the weekend.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find the total number of visitors who received a gift card on Saturday and Sunday separately and then add them.

For Saturday, we need to divide the total number of visitors by 80 to find how many received a gift card:

1,310 ÷ 80 = 16.375

We can't have a fraction of a person receiving a gift card, so we round down to 16. This means 16 people received a gift card on Saturday.

For Sunday, we do the same calculation:

1,714 ÷ 80 = 21.425

Again, we round down to 21. This means 21 people received a gift card on Sunday.

To find the total number of people who received a gift card, we add the number of people who received a gift card on Saturday and Sunday:

16 + 21 = 37

Therefore, a total of 37 people received a gift card over the weekend.
