Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple problem of finding percentage.

To find percentage of people preferring pizza, we need to divide "number of person who like pizza" by the "total number of person".

So, that's

240/500

And then we need to multiply by 100 and tag a "%" sign at the end. So let's do this:

\frac{240}{500}*100=48

So 48% of the people chose pizza.

Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{240}{500}  =  \frac{12}{25}

Greatest Common Factor [GCF]: 20

To find the percentage, first, set up the fraction 240⁄500. Next, find the Greatest Common Factor [GCF], which in this case is 20. Doing this will give you 12⁄25. Now, you have to think. Twenty-five is our denominator, PLUS, it is a factor of 100. So you need to figure out the number that when multiplied by 25, it will give you 100, and that number is 4. So, for every 1 you count [numerator], you add 4% to it, or simply just multiply 4 by 12 to get 48.

So, 48% of people chose pizza.

joja [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Data Set A: 14, 21, 24, 28, 28, 35

Data Set B: 18, 19, 21, 25, 29,32

Median:

Data Set A = 26

24 + 28 = 52

52/2 = 26

Data Set B = 23

21 + 25 = 46

46/2 = 23

Mean:

Data Set A = 25

14 + 21 + 24 + 28 + 28 + 35 = 150

150/6 = 25

Data Set B = 24

18 + 19 + 21 + 25 + 29 + 32 = 144

144/6 = 24
