Question

At a recent football game of 8,450 in attendance, 150 people were asked what they prefer on a hot dog. The results are shown.

Ketchup Relish Chili
54 36 60


Based on the data in this sample, how many of the people in attendance would prefer chili on a hot dog?
5,070
3,380
2,986
2,084

Answer 1

Answer 3380
Explanation
We will find the ratio of 54 36 and 60 which is 9:6;10
So now total attendance is 8450.
So 8450 * 6 / 15= 3380

Answer 2

Answer: 3,380

Step-by-step explanation: THIS IS MY GUESS.

Since we know that 150 people were surveyed, and only 60 wanted chili, we can write an equation to get the percentage of people who wanted chili as 60/150. We can simplify that to get 6/15 and then simplify again to get 2/5. 2/5 simplifies to 40% as a percentage. 40% of 8,450 (or 0.4 x 8,450) would be 3,380.
