Question

156

Answer 1

Answer:

Third option: 80 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of people that were surveyed.

You know that 48 people chose winter as their favorite season and these amount of people are the 60% of those questioned.

Knowing this,  you can calculate  the number of people that were surveyed with this procedure:

$x=\frac{(48\ people)(100\%)}{60\%}\\\\x=(48\ people)(\frac{5}{3})\\\\x=80\ people$

Therefore, 80 people were surveyed. This matches with the third option.
