Answer:
The fraction of the people who choose curry = [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
As given,
Starter Main course
Soup Lasagna
Prawns Curry
The number of people who choose soup: the number of people who choose prawns = 2 : 3
Of those who chose soup,
The number of people who choose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 5 : 3
Of those who chose prawns,
The number of people who chose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 1 : 5
Let total number of people goes to restaurant = 5x
People who choose soup = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]×5x = 2x
People who choose prawns = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]×5x = 3x
Now, given,
Of those who choose soup,
The number of people who choose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 5 : 3
So,
People who choose Lasagna after choosing soup = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]×2x = [tex]\frac{5}{4}x[/tex]
People who choose Curry after choosing soup = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]×2x = [tex]\frac{3}{4}x[/tex]
Also, given,
Of those who chose prawns,
The number of people who chose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 1 : 5
So,
People who choose Lasagna after choosing prawns = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]×3x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]
People who choose Curry after choosing prawns = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]×3x = [tex]\frac{5}{2}x[/tex]
So,
Total number of people who choose curry = [tex]\frac{3}{4}x[/tex] + [tex]\frac{5}{2}x[/tex] = [tex]x ( \frac{3}{4} + \frac{5}{2} ) = x (\frac{3 + 10}{4} ) = x ( \frac{13}{4} ) = \frac{13}{4}x[/tex]
So ,
The fraction of the people who choose curry = [tex]\frac{Total number of people who choose curry}{Total number of people who go to restaurant} = \frac{\frac{13}{4} x}{x} = \frac{13}{4}[/tex]
