PLEASE HELP!! 90 POINTS!!!

In a popular online role playing game, players can create detailed designs for their character's "costumes," or appearance. Alexander sets up a website where players can buy and sell these costumes online. Information about the number of people who visited the website and the number of costumes purchased in a single day is listed below.
8 visitors purchased no costume.
340 visitors purchased exactly one costume.
28 visitors purchased more than one costume.

If next week, he is expecting 600 visitors, about how many would you expect to buy more than one costume? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

600 visitors expected. Add 28 visitors for buying more than one costume and you get 628 visitors. I think you are complicating it.

Answer:

45 people

Explanation:

1) Add all of the origanal visitors (376)

2) Find the ratio (28/376) = 0.0744

3) Either 28/376 * 600 OR 0.0744 * 600 (I would recomend the fraction for more accurate answers, but because it says to round to the nearest whole number either will work, but you should still use fraction)

4) 44.6908

5) Round to 45 people
