The data from two random samples of 200 people regarding their favorite nuts is shown in the following table.%0D%0A%0D%0A %09Almond%09Pistachio%09Cashew%09Walnuts%09Total%0D%0ASample 1%0940%0962%0963%0935%09200%0D%0ASample 2%0943%0964%0961%0932%09200%0D%0ABased 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 calculate the total number of people who prefer cashew nuts in both samples.
In Sample 1, 63 people prefer cashew nuts.
In Sample 2, 61 people prefer cashew nuts.
Total number of people who prefer cashew nuts = 63 + 61 = 124
The total number of people in both samples is 200 + 200 = 400.
Percentage of people who prefer cashew nuts = (124/400) * 100% = 31%
Therefore, 31% of the people prefer cashew nuts based on the two samples.
