Answer 1

Heya!!

Here's your answer!!

Answer : 276 guests.

Step-by-step explanation :

Fraction of the guests those choose beef = 1/3

Fraction of the guests those choose chicken = 5/12

Fraction of the guests those choose vegetarian = 1 - 1/3 - 5/12 = 1/4.

Find the number of guests :

Guests those choose vegetarian = 1/4

Guests those choose vegetarian = 69

1/4 of the guests =69

4/4 of the guests = 69×4 = 276

276 guests.

fraction of the guest that chose beef = 1/3

fraction of the guest that chose chicken = 5/12

fraction of the guest that chose vegetarian = 1  - 1/3 - 5/12 = 1/4

Find the number of guests:

guests that chose vegetarian = 1/4

guests that chose vegetarian = 69

1/4 of the guest = 69

4/4 of the guest = 69 x 4 = 276

Answer: There are 276 guests.
