For this case the first thing we should do is find the percentage of people surveyed who said that pizza pizza was their favorite type of pizza.
 We have then:
 [tex]x = (21/40) * (100) x = 52.5%[/tex]
 We are now looking for 52.5% of 1600 people.
 For this, we make the following rule of three:
 1600 ----------> 100%
 x ---------------> 52.5%
 Clearing the value of x we have:
 [tex]x = (52.5 / 100) * (1600) x = 840[/tex]
 Answer:
 the most reasonable estimate for the number of Trinity Food Festival attendees whose favorite type of pizza is sausage pizza is:
 x = 840
