Question

A city employee collected survey data from 2330 randomly selected residents. A total of 865 of these residents said that they thought the city should devote more city funds to repair roads. To the nearest percent, what is a good estimate of the percentage of all residents who thought this?

Answer 1

Hello!

to do this sort of problem, do this:

856/2330=x

x*100=final, unrounded answer

in this case, the unrounded answer is 36.738197424892703862660944206009

if rounding, the answer is 36.74.

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
