Question

Nearly 4 out of 5 people choose vanilla as their favorite ice cream flavor. If 140 people attend an ice cream social how many would choose vanilla?

Answer 1

112 people

EXPLANATION :

4 out of 5 people choose vanilla.

So we can write it as a fraction 4/5

If there are 140 people, the number of people who would choose vanilla is 4/5 of this people.

That will be :

`(4)/(5)*140=112`
