Answer 1

Answer:

Decimal represents the number of people who earned a perfect score is 0.009 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

At a county fair, 9 people out of 1,000 earned a perfect score in a carnival game.

$Number\ of\ people\ who\ earned\ a\ perfect\ score = \frac{People\ who\ earned\ perfect\ score}{Total\ number\ people}$

people who earned a perfect score = 9

Total number of people = 1000

Put in the above

$Number\ of\ people\ who\ earned\ a\ perfect\ score = \frac{9}{1000}$

Number of people who earned a perfect score = 0.009

Therefore  decimal represents the number of people who earned a perfect score is 0.009 .
