Calculate Total Customers: First, let's find the total number of customers from last week.62 (cash) + 60 (debit card) + 2 (credit card) = 124 customers.
Calculate Proportion of Credit Card Customers: Next, calculate the proportion of customers who paid with a credit card last week. 124 (total customers)2 (credit card)=0.01612903226.
Estimate Credit Card Customers for Next Week: Now, let's use this proportion to estimate the number of customers who will pay with a credit card next week.0.01612903226×1000 (expected customers) = 16.12903226.
Round to Nearest Whole Number: Finally, round the answer to the nearest whole number. 16.12903226 rounds to 16.
