Question

the matrix shows the number of different types of drinks sold at a store.
small med. large
sugar no sugar
what percent of large drinks sold had sugar?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the total number of large drinks

The number of large drinks with sugar is \(51\), and the number of large drinks with no sugar is \(17\). So the total number of large drinks is \(51 + 17=68\).

Step2: Calculate the percentage of large drinks with sugar

The formula for percentage is \(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\times100\%\). Here, the part is the number of large drinks with sugar (\(51\)), and the whole is the total number of large drinks (\(68\)). So the percentage is \(\frac{51}{68}\times 100\%=\frac{5100}{68}\% = 75\%\)

Answer:

\(75\%\)
