Each year, a radio station awards a prize vacation to one of its listeners. The prize winner has the option of choosing a vacation to Hawaii, New York, California, or Alaska. In the past, 35% of winners chose Hawaii, 25% chose New York, 25% chose California, and the remaining winners chose Alaska. If the radio station uses 40 chips in four different colors to model this situation, how many colored chips should they use to represent each vacation option

Respuesta :

The colored chips they used to represent each vacation option are:

Hawaii:  14 blue chips

New York: 10 yellow chips

California: 10 red chips

Alaska: 6 green chips

How many colored chips should they use to represent each vacation option?

The radio station awarded 40 different colored chips to 100% winners.

To know how many colored chips should they use to represent each vacation option the following steps are taken:

Hawaii = ( 35/100) × 40

= 14 blue chips

New York = (25/100) ×40

= 10 yellow chips

California = (25/100)  ×40

= 10 red chips

Alaska = (15/100)  × 40

= 6 green chips
