Answer:

500 people I believe

Explanation:

To find the answer I divide 210 and 0.42 to get an answer of 500. So 500 people were surveyed!

HOPE THIS HELPS! :)

Answer:

There were 500 people surveyed

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use proportions

We know that 210 people voted, football, and football was 42% of the entire pool.

[tex]\frac{210}{people} = \frac{42}{100} \\[/tex]

Now we can cross multiply, I'll use p for the variable (simplicity)

[tex]100*210 = 42p\\\frac{21000}{42} = p\\p = 500[/tex]
