The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations: ### Step 1: Calculate the number of male customers. Given that there are 250 customers and 68% of them are male, we can calculate the number of male customers using the formula: \[ \text{Number of male customers} = \left(\frac{68}{100}\right) \times 250 \] Calculating this gives: \[ \text{Number of male customers} = 0.68 \times 250 = 170 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the number of female customers. To find the number of female customers, we subtract the number of male customers from the total number of customers: \[ \text{Number of female customers} = 250 - 170 = 80 \] ### Step 3: Set up the equation based on the problem statement. Let \( x \) be the number of female customers who canceled their subscriptions. After these cancellations, the total number of subscribers becomes: \[ \text{Total subscribers} = 250 - x \] The number of male customers remains the same at 170. According to the problem, the total number of subscribers is equal to 1.3 times the number of male customers: \[ 250 - x = 1.3 \times 170 \] ### Step 4: Calculate 1.3 times the number of male customers. Calculating this gives: \[ 1.3 \times 170 = 221 \] ### Step 5: Substitute and solve for \( x \). Now we substitute this value back into the equation: \[ 250 - x = 221 \] To find \( x \), we rearrange the equation: \[ x = 250 - 221 \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 29 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the number of female customers who canceled their subscriptions is **29**. ---
