If 105 customers were the total, and 35% prefers cake, we must calculate 35% of 105, then we must do 105 multiplied by 35%, we can doit transforming the 35% in the fraction notation:
[tex]35\%=\frac{35}{100}[/tex]
And the multiplication
[tex]105\cdot\frac{35}{100}=36.75[/tex]
Therefore, if we round it to the nearest whole number, the number of customers that prefer cake is 37.
37 customers prefer cake.
