Calculate the lower bound of people who prefer tea:
600+-+20+=+580

Calculate the upper bound of people who prefer tea:
600+%2B+20+=+620

Calculate the lower bound of people who prefer tea in a market of 4000 people:
+%28580%2F1000%29+%2A+4000+=+2320

Calculate the upper bound of people who prefer tea in a market of+4000+people:
%28620%2F1000%29+%2A+4000+=+2480

it can be estimated that between 2320 and 2480+prefer tea

answer:
Ⓐ and Ⓕ
