The given pie chart represents the popularity of ice-cream flavours in the year 2005.
In 2005, if 40% of the ‘other’ category is mix fruit flavour and 1570 people surveyed preferred mix fruit flavour, then how many people were surveyed?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e 25,000.
Percentage that others have = 15.7%
40% of the other category = 40% of 15.7 = 6.28%
And,
⇒ 6.28% = 1570
⇒ 100% = 1570/6.28 × 100
⇒ 25000
Thus, 25000 people were surveyed
