210 people said football was their favorite sport to watch, and 42% of the people surveyed said football was their favorite sport to watch.
Therefore, we can set up the following equation:
210 = 0.42x
We can solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.42:
x = 210/0.42
x = 500 people
Therefore, 500 people were surveyed.
