500 people took the survey.
12 out of 15 people is 80% of the population. 12/15 = 0.80
Thus, 80% of the population prefers eating in the restaurant.
If 400 represents the people who prefers eating in the restaurant; then, 400 is the 80% of the population. To get the total population or 100%, we must divide 400 by 0.80 or 80%
400 / 0.80 = 500 people.
Out of the 500 people, 400 selected eating in the restaurant while the remaining 20% of the population or 100 people selected cooking at home.
A GCF ( Greatest Common Factor) is one factor that can be split evenly between the two numbers you have chosen.
For example, the greatest common factor of 4 and 8 would be 4 because this is the greatest number that can be split evenly with the numbers I have chosen.
I hope this helped.
I'm Pretty Sure The Answer Is x=2
Hope This Help's
We will need a picture. If you don't have one then we could possibly tell you the wrong answer and I really don't want that to happen.
