Question

A telemarketer is required to make 50 solicitation calls per hour. In a given hour he got 15 people out of the 50 he called to answer the phone. What is the fraction of people who picked up the phone? Express your answer in lowest terms.

Answer 1

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We know he is required to call 50 people but rather unfortunately only 15 people picked.

The fraction of the people who picked up the call would be 15 out of 50 which is mathematically 15/50

To the lowest term, this is 3/10
