Question

The internet was used by 30% of the population of a state in 2008. If 3200 people were surveyed, how many in the survey were using the internet in 2008?

Answer 1

1. We know that 30% expressed as a decimal is 0.30

Since 30% of people were using the internet, 0.30*3200 is our answer.
3200*0.30= 960.

Therefore 960 people were using the internet out of the 3200 surveyed.
