The staff at an advertising company took a survey of 350 people, each of whom had visited one of two branches, East and West of a store. Each person surveyed was asked whether he or she had purchased a certain product within the past month. The results of the survey, by location, are shown in the table
East West Total
Had purchased the 49 70 119
product
Had not purchased the 133 98 231
product
Total 182 168 350
Of the people who visited the West branch of the store, what fraction indicated that they had not purchased the product?
Give your answer as a fraction. Enter your answer in the boxes
The fraction of people who visited the West branch of the store and indicated they had not purchased the product is:
98 (number of people who had not purchased at West branch) / 168 (total number of people who visited West branch)
Therefore, the fraction is 98/168.
