Question: 1 / 125

How many customers made a purchase if 3,000 people visited a gift shop, and 76% of them made a purchase?

2,280

To determine how many customers made a purchase, you need to calculate 76% of the total number of visitors, which is 3,000.

To find the number of customers who made a purchase, multiply the total visitors by the percentage (expressed as a decimal):

76% can be converted to a decimal by dividing 76 by 100, which equals 0.76. Then, multiplying this by the total number of visitors provides the number of purchasers:

3,000 x 0.76 = 2,280.

This calculation shows that 2,280 customers made a purchase, making this the correct answer. The calculations reflect the practical application of percentage in a real-world business scenario, illustrating how to efficiently assess customer behavior based on foot traffic in retail settings.
