Question

A survey shows that 67% of peanut butter lovers prefer chunky-style. Out of 850 people surveys, how many can be predicted to say they prefer chunky-style peanut butter?

Answer 1

I like to use this formula cause it's really useful when it comes to these problems:

   Part                  Percent

________    =  _________

  Whole                 100

So, you basically plug in the numbers into the equation, it's really easy:

    ???                  67%

________   =   ________

    850                  100

Then, you cross multiply. 67% x 850 = 56,950 / 100 =

And the answer to your question is: 569.6 or rounded is 570.

Answer 2

ANSWER: 569.5
All you have to do is make you % into a decimal is multiply by 850

Hope this helps :-)
