Question 863359: I was curious if you can answer the following question for me. I have an answer, but I am not sure that I set the problem up correctly. Thanks!
The Nickels restaurant chain regularly conducts surveys of its customers. Respondents are asked to assess food quality, service, and price. The possible responses are "Excellent", "Good", "Fair". Surveyed customers are also asked whether they would come back. After analyzing the responses, an expert in probability determined that 87% of customers say that they will return. Of those who so indicate, 57% rate the restaurant as excellent, 36% rate it as good, and the remainder rate it as fair. Of those who say that they won't return, the probabilities are 14%, 32%, and 54%, respectively. What proportion of customers rate the restaurant as good?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
87% of customers say that they will return
13% will not return
.87*.36 + .13*.32 = number who rate good
