Question

Forty people were asked their favorite kind of pizza. Thirty percent of the people surveyed chose sausage. How many people preferred sausage?

Answer 1

Answer: 12 people

Explanation:

0.30 x 40 = 12

Answer 2

To find out how many people preferred sausage, you can start by multiplying the percentage who chose sausage, which is 30%, by the total number of people surveyed, which is 40.

So, 30% of 40 is:

0.30 x 40 = 12

Therefore, 12 people preferred sausage.
