to eat chocolate, 15% like to eat fast food and rest like to eat ice-cream. Find

the exact number of people who like to eat each type of food​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 3000

30/100 * 3000

30*30 = 900

900 people like to eat pastry.

________________

20% of 3000

20/100*3000

20*30

600

Therefore, 600 people like to eat chocolate.

_________________

15% of 3000

15/100 * 3000

15*30

450

Therefore, 450 people like to eat fast food.

___________________

And the rest like to eat ice cream.

Let the number of people like to eat ice cream be x.

900 + 600 + 450 + x = 3000

1950+ x = 3000

x = 3000 - 1950

x = 1150

Hence, 1150 people like to eat ice cream.
