Question

On Wednesday 72% of the costumers who bought gas at a gas station made additional purchases. There were 259 costumers made additional purchase?

Answer 1

360 approx

Explanation:

Given data

We want to find the total number of customers that bought gas

Let the total number of customers be x

So

72% of x = 259

let us solve for x

72/100*x= 259

0.72*x=259

x= 259/0.72

x= 359.72

Hence the actual number of customers is 360 approx
