a. How many selected traveling as their favorite hobby?

Answer 1

180 people

Explanation:

Total of people surveyed = 1,000

% of people that selected travelling as their favorite hobby = 18 %

Number of people that selected travelling = % that selected travelling of 1,000

= 18/100 × 1,000

= 180 people

Therefore, 180 people selected travelling as their favorite hobby.
