984 members of club would be in favor of used-gear sale based on results of survey.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of people surveyed = 72
People in favor of sale = 63
Percentage of people in favor = [tex]\frac{People\ in\ favor\ of\ sale}{No.\ of\ people\ surveyed}*100[/tex]
Percentage of people in favor = [tex]\frac{63}{72}*100 = \frac{6300}{72}\\[/tex]
Percentage of people in favor = 87.5%
It means that 87.5% members of club will be in favor of sale.
Total members of club = 1125
Total members in favor = 87.5% of total members
[tex]Total\ members\ in\ favor=\frac{87.5}{100}*1125 = \frac{98437.5}{100}\\Total\ members\ in\ favor=984.3[/tex]
Rounding off to nearest whole number
Total members in favor = 984
984 members of club would be in favor of used-gear sale based on results of survey.
