A local coffee shop serves 2/9

Question

as many customers as a shop run by a national coffee chain. The shop run by the chain serves 502 customers a day. About how many customers does the local shop serve in a day (round to the nearest whole number)?

Answer 1

Let x be the number of customers served by the local coffee shop.
We know that x = 2/9 * 502
Multiplying this out, we get x = 1004 / 9
To round to the nearest whole number, we can add 0.5 and then round down.
So x is approximately 111.
