Answer 1

Third option: 80 people.

Explanation:

Let be "x" the number of people that were surveyed.

You know that 48 people chose winter as their favorite season and these amount of people are the 60% of those questioned.

Knowing this, you can calculate the number of people that were surveyed with this procedure:

`x=((48\ people)(100\%))/(60\%)\\\\x=(48\ people)((5)/(3))\\\\x=80\ people`

Therefore, 80 people were surveyed. This matches with the third option.
