Answer 1

Answer:

96 people are expected

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can first convert the surveyed group results into a percentage.

• 6 people out of 200
• 6/200
• 3/100
• 0.03
• 3%

So 3% of the sampled survey were interesetd. To find the actual expected number of patrons, we find 3% of 3200.

• 3% of 3200
• 0.03 * 3200
• 96

96 people are expected.
