Answer:
The number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Number of citizens = 140,000
Required
Determine the number of those that chose fish or cats
First, we need to calculate the percentage of those whose pets are either cats or fish
[tex]Percentage = Cat + Fish[/tex]
Substitute 23% for cat and 11% for fish
[tex]Percentage = 23\% + 11\%[/tex]
[tex]Percentage = 34\%[/tex]
Next, is to multiply the calculated percentage by the number of citizens
[tex]Cat\ or\ Fish = Percentage * Number\ of\ Citizens[/tex]
[tex]Cat\ or\ Fish = 34\% * 140000[/tex]
[tex]Cat\ or\ fish = 47600[/tex]
Hence, the number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600
the number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600
= Number of citizens × total percentage
[tex]= 140,000 \times (23\% + 11\%)\\\\= 140,000 \times 34\%[/tex]
= 47,600
