$Round to nearest whole number = 1695$

Steps

Step 1 ： $Total visitors = 9 + 95 + 8 = 112$

Step 2 ： $Visitors who purchased exactly 1 costume = \frac{95}{112}$

Step 3 ： $Expected visitors next week = 2000$

Step 4 ： $Visitors buying exactly 1 costume = 2000 \times \frac{95}{112} \approx 1694.64$

Step 5 ： $Round to nearest whole number = 1695$
