Question

Eric found that about 62% of 80 classmates at school like hip hop music. However 70% of his 60 relatives like hip hop. Do more of his relatives like hip hop or classmates?

Answer 1

Answer:

More of his classmates like hip hop music: 50 approximately

as compared to 42 relatives

Step-by-step explanation:

62 % of 80 classmates: c

$c = \frac{62}{100} (80)$

c = 0.62 × 80

c = 49.6 classmates like hip hop music

70% of 60 relatives: r

$r = \frac{70}{100} (60)$

r = 0.70 × 60

r = 42 relatives like hip hop music
