The circle graph shows the results of a survey about students’ favorite fruit. If 300 students were surveyed, how many students chose bananas as their favorite type of fruit?

26% of the 300 preferred bananas....so......26% of 300  = .26 * 300   = 78 preferred bananas

According to this graph 26 out of each 100 people liked bannanas.

times this by 3 to get your answer:

26*3=78

78 people liked bannanas

 

going one step further (because i'm bored)

 

44*3=132 people like apples

20*3=60 people like peaches

10*3=30 people like other

 

78+132+60+30 = 300 people so that checks out.
