Answer 1

Answer: About 50%

Explanation:

The survey is an important research method that is used to get the opinions of individuals on important matters. It can be administered in the form of a questionnaire.

The response rate obtained from a given type of survey is gotten by dividing the number of respondents to the total number of individuals who received the survey and then multiplying the result by 100.

Mail surveys have been found to have an average response rate of about 50%. This is a reasonable rate and the success seems to be given by the fact that the hard copy mail arrives on the doorstep of the respondent.
