Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

There are 16 responses

There are 8 people who said yes

P( happy) = yes/ total

P(happy) = 8/16 = 1/2

Answer:


\sf (1)/(2)

Explanation:

Results from the slips of paper:

  • yes = 8
  • no = 8

Total slips of paper = 16


\sf Proportion = (part)/(whole)


\implies \textsf{Proportion of shoppers who were happy}=\sf (8)/(16)=(1)/(2)
