Question

Trina invited 60 people to her party and 42 said they would attend. What percent of people said they were NOT able to attend? Please show work!

Answer 1

18 people are coming. 18/60 is equal to 30/100. 70 percent are not coming because 100 - 30 is 70.

Answer 2

1. simplify 42/60 to 7/10 (42/60 divided by 2 is 21/30, 21/30 divided by 3 is 7/10)
2. if 10 x 10 = 100 than 7 x 10 = 70 so that would make it 70/100 which is 70%
so 70% is the answer

Hope this helps ;)
