Answer 1

Answer:

11.76%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Total number of students = 340

Students that prefer cheese pizza = 40

Students that prefer pepperoni pizza = 28

Thus, we get that,

The proportion of students that prefers cheese pizza = $\frac{40}{340}$

i.e. The proportion of the students preferring cheese pizza = 0.1176 = 11.76%

Hence, 11.76% of the students prefer cheese pizza.
