<h3>5 of the 6 vaccinated people will be protected from the virus</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Suppose that a vaccine is 85% effective against the flu

You vaccinated 6 people

To find: Number of people you expect will be protected from the virus

From given,

85 % of 6 people are effective against the flu

Which means,

\rightarrow 85 \% \text{ of } 6\\\\\rightarrow \frac{85}{100} \times 6\\\\\rightarrow 0.85 \times 6\\\\\rightarrow 5.1 \approx 5

Thus, 5 of the 6 vaccinated people will be protected from the virus
