PSLE A group of students was asked to choose one burger from beef, hotdog, tuna and mutton. 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 beef and tuna burgers?
Burgers |
Students |
Beef |
5% |
Hotdog |
40% |
Tuna |
25% |
Mutton |
30% |
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 = 10
5% of students = 10
1% of students = 10 ÷ 5 = 2
Percent of students who chose beef burgers = 5%
Percent of students who chose tuna burgers = 25%
Percent of students who chose beef and tuna burgers
= 5% + 25%
= 30%
Total number of students who chose beef and tuna burgers
= 30 x 2
= 60
Answer(s): 60
