Question

A restaurant wants to study how well its salads sell. The circle graph shows the sales over the past few days. If 35 of the salads sold were Caesar salads, how many total salads did the restaurant​ sell?

Answer 1

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the circle graph :

Salad sold :

Caesar = 70%

Garden = 16%

Taco = 14%

If 35 of the salad sold were Caesar ;

Then ; this means

70% = 35

Total salad sold %= (70+16+14)% = 100%

Let total sales = x

70% = 35

100% = x

Cross multiply :

70% * x = 100% * 35

0.7x = 35

x = 35 / 0.7

x = 50
