To find out how many customers the local coffee shop serves in a day, we can start by finding out how many customers the national coffee chain serves.
We know that the local coffee shop serves 2/9 as many customers as the national coffee chain. If the national coffee chain serves 502 customers a day, we can calculate the number of customers the local shop serves as follows:
(2/9) * 502 = 111.33
Rounding this to the nearest whole number would give us that the local coffee shop serves about 111 customers in a day.
To find out how many customers the local coffee shop serves in a day, we need to calculate 2/9 of the number of customers served by the national coffee chain.
First, we need to find out what 2/9 of 502 is. To do this, we can multiply 2/9 by 502.
(2/9) * 502 = 111.11
Since we are rounding to the nearest whole number, the local coffee shop serves approximately 111 customers in a day.
