The table shows the results of a survey of 200 movie rental customers:

Comedy---> 15%

Mystery---> 10%

Horror---> 46%

Science fiction ---> 29%


How many customers prefer horror movies?

To work this out, you do 46% of 200, as there are 200 customers asked, and the question asks for the number of customers that prefer horror movies, which is 46%. 

You can work that out by doing (200 × 46) ÷ 100 = 92. 

92 customers prefer horror movies.

92 people prefer horror.
Explaination: 200 people, and %s are always out of 100. For 200, you can just multiply the number by two to find how many people.
Here's the other ones just in case you need these:
Horror: 92 people
Comedy: 30 people
Mystery: 20 people
Science fiction: 58 people
To make sure you have the right answer, add up all the people to see if you get 200. If you get 200 (I checked, and I did) then you have the right answer.
