Answer: about 14

Work Shown:

Add up the values in the table:

170+135+150+145 = 600

There are 600 orders in total. Of those 600, we have 135+145 = 280 that are for lemonade or for orange juice. This means roughly 280/600 = 0.4667 of all the drinks are either lemonade or orange juice.

Assuming this ratio keeps up, we can multiply 0.4667 with 30 to get

30*0.4667 = 14.001 which rounds to 14

This represents the estimated number of drinks in the next 30 orders that are either lemonade or orange juice.
