Question

A survey showed that 56% of car owners prefer four-door cars, 31% prefer two-door cars, and 13% have no preference. You ask 500 people. How many do you think will prefer four-door cars?

Answer 1

280.

Answer 2

0.56 x 500 = 280 people

Answer 3

Thank you everyone

Answer 4

56%= 56/100

so the same thing applies, you take the size that you ask, and multiply it by the number of people who prefer four door cars over the size of the sample:

500x(56/100)=280
