Question

!!!20 POINTS!!!

Harper owns a small business selling ice-cream. She knows that in the last week 65 customers paid cash, 5 customers used a debit card, and 3 customers used a credit card.
If next week, she is expecting 2000 customers, about how many would you expect to pay with cash? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

1781

Explanation:

there are 73 different customers and 65 paid with cash. So we can get the percent of people paying with cash by doing 65÷73. then we multiply the number we just got by 2000 to find how many people are paying with cash out of the 2000 people and we get 1781.
