A west Texas city has a population of 9,525. A city council poll revealed that 56% of the citizens want a fireworks display for the upcoming 4th of July celebration. How many of the city’s people want a fireworks display for the 4th of July?
5,334 people
8,965 people
560 people
4,191 people
To find out how many people want a fireworks display, you multiply the total population by the percentage that wants the display:
Total population = 9,525
Percentage wanting fireworks = 56% = 0.56
Now, calculate:
9,525 × 0.56 = 5,334
So, 5,334 people want a fireworks display for the 4th of July. The correct answer is 5,334 people.
