Question

The art club had an election to select a president. 9 out of the 12 members of the art club voted in the election. What percentage of the members voted?

Answer 1

The percentage is the fraction X 100.

9/12 = 0.75 = 75%

Answer 2

Answer: There is 75% of the members voted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of members of the art club = 12

Number of members who voted in the elections = 9

We need to find the percentage of the members voted.

So, percentage would be

$}{\dfrac{\text{Number of people voted}}{\text{total number of people}}\\\\=\dfrac{9}{12}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{900}{12}\\\\=75\%$

Hence, there is 75% of the members voted.
