In a random sample of 200 customers at a fast food restaurant, 74 customers ordered a salad. If the restaurant typically has 1,000 customers in a day, how many customers will probably order a salad?

Respuesta :

I'm pretty sure that you would divide 1000/200 and get 5 then multiply it by 74 to get 370. So 370 customers will probably order a salad.





Sorry if this is wrong I don't think that it is but just in case.

Answer:

370 customers would order a salad.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Out of  200 customers 74 ordered a salad.

So, the ratio of the customers who ordered salad and the total costumers = [tex]\frac{74}{200}[/tex]

Let x be the number of costumers who order a salad out of 1000 customers,

So, the ratio of the customers who ordered salad and the total costumers = [tex]\frac{x}{1000}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \frac{x}{1000}=\frac{74}{200}[/tex]

[tex]200x=74000[/tex]

[tex]\implies x = \frac{74000}{200}=370[/tex]
