churros has 6 votes
candy has 10 votes there are still 400 people attending the movie night, using that sample, how many students are not going to order candi

Answer 1

To determine how many students are not going to order candy based on the survey results, we first need to calculate the total number of votes from the survey and then find the proportion of students who voted for candy.

Given the votes:
- Popcorn: 34 votes
- Churros: 6 votes
- Candy: 10 votes

**Total votes = 34 + 6 + 10 = 50 votes.**

Next, we determine the proportion of students that voted for candy:

**Proportion of students who voted for candy = Votes for candy / Total votes = 10 / 50 = 0.2 or 20%.**

Then, we can calculate the number of students who are expected to order candy out of the 400 students attending:

**Number of students ordering candy = 20% of 400 = 0.2 * 400 = 80 students.**

Finally, we find the number of students who are not going to order candy:

**Number of students not ordering candy = Total attendees - Number ordering candy = 400 - 80 = 320 students.**

So, **320 students are not going to order candy.**
