the data from the tow random samples of 200 people regarding their favorite nuts is shown in the following table. based on the two samples, what percentage of the people prefer cashew nuts
To find the percentage of people who prefer cashew nuts, we need to first calculate the total number of people who prefer cashew nuts in both samples.
From Sample 1:
Number of people who prefer cashew nuts = 30
From Sample 2:
Number of people who prefer cashew nuts = 35
Total number of people who prefer cashew nuts = 30 + 35 = 65
Total number of people in both samples = 200 + 200 = 400
Percentage of people who prefer cashew nuts = (65 / 400) * 100
= 16.25%
Therefore, based on the two samples, 16.25% of the people prefer cashew nuts.
