Question

At local papa Gin’s conducted a food survey. The survey showed that 8/13 of the people preferred eating pasta to hamburger. If 5,460 responded to the survey, how many favored hamburger?

Answer 1

2100 people favored hamburgers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of people responded to survey = 5460

People who prefer eating pasta = 8/13

Number of people who prefer pasta = 8/13 of 5460

Number of people who prefer pasta = $\frac{8}{13}*5460=\frac{43680}{13}$

Number of people who prefer pasta = 3360

Number of people who favor hamburger = Total - People who prefer pasta

Number of people who favor hamburger = 5460 - 3360 = 2100

2100 people favored hamburgers.
