The best prediction is that 45 people will like the clothing store the best.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of people starts at 50. It then increases to 125. To get to 125, 50 must have been multiplied by 2.5. Therefore, we will also multiply the number of people who favor the clothing store, 18, by 2.5. 18 x 2.5 = 45.
