Question

The citizens of a certain community were asked to choose their favorite pet. The pie chart below shows the distribution of the citizens answers. If there are 90,000 citizens in the community, how many chose hamsters, fish, snakes?

Answer 1

27000

EXPLANATION :

From the problem, 7% chose hamsters, 15% chose Fish and 8% chose Snakes.

A total of 7 + 15 + 8 = 30%

Multiply this percentage by the population (90,000) to get the number of people who chose these pets.

That will be :

`90000(0.30)=27000`
