Question

Supervisor: In general, half of all customers you speak to will ask about any upcoming pricing discounts or promotions. Of those who do ask, only 20% qualify for the discount. Employee: So that means if I speak to 300 customers, __________ will qualify for the discount.

Answer 1

Answer: 30 people

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, only half of those spoken to will ask about upcoming discounts so out of 300, the number that will ask for discounts is:

= 300 / 2

= 150 people

Out of these 150 people who ask about upcoming discounts, only 20% will qualify. The number that will qualify is:

= 150 * 20%

= 30 people
