Question

a store has 300 televisions on order, and 80% are high definition. how many televisions on order are HD?

Answer 1

240 Televisions are on HD.

Answer 2

Answer: The number of televisions on order are HD  = 240

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of televisions on order= 300

The percentage of televisions orders are high definition = 80%

i..e The proportion of televisions orders are high definition = 0.80  [ we divide percentage by 100 to convert into decimal]

Now , the number of televisions on order are HD = (Total televisions) x (proportion of televisions are high definition)

=(300) x (0.80)

=240

Hence, the number of televisions on order are HD  = 240
