A local marketing brand is having a pizza fundraiser to predict what type of pizza to order they surveyed patrons on their favorite toppings if the marching band were to sell 1,299 slices of pizza predict the number of cheese slices sold.
650 patrons
241 patrons
325 students
433 patrons
To predict the number of cheese slices sold, we will use the proportion of patrons who prefer cheese as their favorite topping.
Total number of patrons surveyed = 650 + 241 + 325 + 433 = 1649
Proportion of patrons who prefer cheese = 9/1649
Number of cheese slices sold = (9/1649) * 1299 ≈ 7 slices
Therefore, approximately 7 cheese slices would be sold.
