Question

A beverage company surveyed 450 adults to determine the demand for summer drinks.

Answer 1

Answer:

174 people preferred drinking water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A total of 450 males and females were surveyed.

203 were males.

Number of females = 450 - 203 = 247 females

247 females were surveyed.

Now, we will find the number of females who prefer water.

Let,

x be that number.

Total number of females = Soda + Iced tea + Lemonade + Water

247 = 28 + 44 + 67 + x

247 = 139 + x

247-139 = x

x = 108

Number of people who prefer water = 108 + 66 = 174

Hence,

174 people preferred drinking water.
