Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{29}{47}\times 100$.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 60 boys at a summer camp were asked to complete a survey about their favorite outdoor activity. 18 boys chose biking and 29 boys chose fishing. The remaining boys did not complete the survey.

First of all, we will find number of boys, who participated in survey.

Boys chose biking: 28

Boys who chose fishing: 29

$18+29=47$

$\text{Percent of survey participants who chose fishing}=\frac{\text{Boys who chose fishing}}{\text{Boys participated in survey}}\times 100$

$\text{Percent of survey participants who chose fishing}=\frac{29}{47}\times 100$

Therefore, the expression  $\frac{29}{47}\times 100$ gives the percent of survey participants who chose fishing.

$\frac{29}{47}\times 100\%=0.6170\times 100\%=61.70\%$

Therefore, approximately 61.70% of survey participants who chose fishing.

Answer 2
