Use the table and the following info. A random sample of 40 flower shop customers was surveyed to find customers' favorite flowers. The table shows the results. The shop expects to sell 50 flowers on Sunday. How many bunches of each flower should the shop order?
TABLE
Daisy-8 people is its favorite
Gardenia-4 people is its favortie
Mum-8 people is it's favorite
Rose-20 ppl is it's favorite
SO WHAT DO I DO?? I HAVE NO IDEA AND OUR TEST IS TOMORWO! HELP! EXPLAINIT OR SOMETHING!
HELP?? 6th grade homework!!!!!!!!1?
idk its been 2 years since 6 grade. although i think all they are doing is adding all the numbers together which adds up to 40. so......for the flowers on sunday (50), i think you have to find 4 more numbers that you can add to 40 to get 50. that way each number you pick can go to one of the flower catagories. i hope i helped you. please choose me as the best answer. ?
Reply:simple: divide the flower numbers by four and multiply by 5
daisy: 10
gardania: 5
mum: 10
rose: 25
its just a question of fitting the sample to the number they want to sell, its like this you ask 10 a sample people about shoe sizes, and then make the large number that you will produce to match the same ratios of the numbers people are more likely to have.
Reply:use the percentages
Total 40 Customers
20 Rose out of 40 customers = 50%
8 Daisy+8Mum out of 40 cusomers = 20% + 20% = 40%
4 Gardenia out of 40 customers = 10 %
Calculate the same for 50 customers.
Daisy-10 (20% of 50)
Gardenia-5 (10% of 50)
Mum-10 (20% of 50)
Rose-25 (50% of 50)
