As a small restaurant owner, you are very interested in understanding the demand of your different products. You have been collecting data over the past 11 weeks on the number of fish platter sales that you make each day.

You want to run a simulation and you believe that 60% of your fish platter sales for a given week show up on the weekends (evenly split between Friday, Saturday and Sunday) while the remaining 40% are evenly divided across the four other weekdays (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday).

Your recorded data over the past 11 weeks is below. Use the average demand for each day (Monday to Sunday) to test your assumption about the daily distribution of fish platter sales.
