Question

1) A survey of favorite colors showed 198 people chose

green, 212 chose blue, and 187 chose red. If 39% of the
people surveyed are children, ABOUT how many
people surveyed were children? (use a calculator – show
all work!)

Answer 1

233

Explanation:

so we add up the total number of people surveyed (198+212+187) and get 597. So, then we multiply 597 by 0.39 (597(.39)) and that gives us 232.83. we round up 232.83 to 233 and thats the answer
