what is the answer to part b. how many students said their favorite dessert was pie?

I have no clue I hope you figure it out sorry. :-)

Actually the answer is 0.12 but you can't have part of a person so it would round up to 1 person for part b.
Erica
No, actually part B is 0.15 times 80 which equals 12.
