Full solution

Q. In a random sample of 250250 frozen pepperoni pizzas of a particular brand, 77 do not have enough pepperoni slices. At this rate, how many of 1212,000000 frozen pepperoni pizzas of the same brand will not have enough pepperoni slices?
  1. Problem Understanding: Understand the problem.\newlineWe are given a sample rate of pizzas without enough pepperoni slices and need to apply this rate to a larger quantity of pizzas.
  2. Finding the Rate: Find the rate of pizzas without enough pepperoni slices in the sample.\newlineRate = Number of pizzas without enough pepperoniTotal number of pizzas in the sample\frac{\text{Number of pizzas without enough pepperoni}}{\text{Total number of pizzas in the sample}}\newlineRate = 7250\frac{7}{250}
  3. Calculating Expected Number: Calculate the expected number of pizzas without enough pepperoni slices in 12,00012,000 pizzas.\newlineExpected number == Rate ×\times Total number of pizzas\newlineExpected number == (7250)×12,000\left(\frac{7}{250}\right) \times 12,000
  4. Performing the Calculation: Perform the calculation.\newlineExpected number = (7250)×12,000(\frac{7}{250}) \times 12,000\newlineExpected number = (7×12,000)/250(7 \times 12,000) / 250\newlineExpected number = 84,000/25084,000 / 250\newlineExpected number = 336336
