Whitecourt has a population of 18 950 and has 22 delis. Elvis will choose the town that will have the most residents per deli. Which town will Elvis choose
1 answer
Elvis will choose Whitecourt because it has a population of 18,950 and only 22 delis, giving a ratio of approximately 860 residents per deli. In Valleyview, the population is 1,860 and there are already 2 delis, giving a ratio of 930 residents per deli. Therefore, Whitecourt has a higher ratio of residents per deli, making it the better choice for Elvis to open his deli specializing in peanut butter, bacon, and banana fried sandwiches.
