Jordan said 60% of 150 people is 80 people. His work is shown below. Is his answer correct? Explain why or why not.

2 answers:

7 0

Answer: Sample response: No, his answer is not correct. Jordan incorrectly found that 10% of 150 is 5. 10% of 150 is 150 ÷ 10 = 15. 50% of 150 is 75. 10% + 50% = 15 + 75 = 90. The correct answer is 90 people.
