PSLE A group of students was asked to choose one burger from vegetarian, beef, tuna and turkey. The table represents the students' choices. The students' choices were also represented by a bar graph but the names of the burgers were not shown. What was the total number of students who chose tuna and vegetarian burgers?
Burgers |
Students |
Vegetarian |
30% |
Beef |
10% |
Tuna |
45% |
Turkey |
15% |
Number of students who chose beef burgers is the least. So it is represented by the shortest bar.
Number of students who chose beef burgers = 30
10% of students = 30
1% of students = 30 ÷ 10 = 3
Percent of students who chose tuna burgers = 45%
Percent of students who chose vegetarian burgers = 30%
Percent of students who chose tuna and vegetarian burgers
= 45% + 30%
= 75%
Total number of students who chose beef and turkey burgers
= 75 x 3
= 225
Answer(s): 225
