Question

Mar 07,9:59:21 AMJacob owns a small business selling bagels. He knows that in the last week 65customers paid cash, 26 customers used a debit card, and 8 customers used a creditcard.If next week, he is expecting 600 customers, about how many would you expect topay with a credit card? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

From the question, the total customers that bought items are

`65+26+8=99`

Number of customers that used credit card last week was 8

In the next week, number of customers that would use credit card becomes

`\begin{gathered} (8)/(99)*600 \\ =48.4848 \end{gathered}`

Hence the answer is 48 to the nearest whole number
