12% of yesterday's customers purchased premium grade gasoline from Jasco. If 24 customers bought premium grade gasoline how many customers were there altogether.

Respuesta :

Given:

The percentage of customers who purchased gasoline is g = 12%.

The number of customers who purchased gasoline is n = 24.

The objective is to find a total number of customers altogether.

Explanation:

Consider the total number of customers altogether as x.

The value of x can be calculated as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1\text{2 \%}}{100\text{ \%}}=\frac{24}{x} \\ x=\frac{100}{12}\times24 \\ x=200 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the total number of customers altogether is 200.
