Question

Please help me out! I keep getting the wrong answer

Answer 1

The total amount of people who ordered a large is 5 + 12 + 8 = 25 people.

The amount of customers who bought a large cold drink is 5.

The probability that someone bought a large cold drink is 5 out of 25 people.

This is 5/25 which is 1/5 which is .2

Convert the decimal to a fraction by multiplying by 100 and adding a percent sign at the end.

.2 x 100 = 20%

Edit:

The probability was supposed to be if the customer ordered a cold drink based on people who ordered large.

The amount of people who ordered a large drink is 22 + 5 = 27.

The amount of people who ordered a cold large is 5.

To find the percent, divide the people who ordered cold large by the total people who ordered large.

This would be 5/27 which in decimal form is .185185

To convert to a percent, multiply by 100 and add a percent sign after it.

.185185 x 100 = 18.5185%

The question says to round to the nearest percent so your answer is:

19%
