Question

The tour bus had 60 passengers. The survey showed that 20% of the passengers enjoyed the tour. How many passengers enjoyed the tour?
A. 40
B. 30
C. 20
D. 12

Answer 1

The answer is D. My dad taught me an easy way to solve those kind of problems.You need to do (60×20)÷100. And since 60 and 20 both have a zero and 100 has 2 zeros, u can cross out all the zeros and just do 6×2 and divide that by 1 and so 20% of 60 is 12. Hope this helped :)
