Answer:
Yes! The Commercial is telling the truth that the product kills a good amount, but they are lying when they say it kills 95%. Because it kills 96%!
Explanation:
This is a great question to be asking!
With is experiment, instead of killing 95% of the roaches in the laboratory, it killed 96%. But, it is strange that the commercial did not say 96%. But, to me, maybe that because 95% looks more appealing to the broad audience, instead of a higher number?
Anyways! Hahaha, sorry for getting off topic, but all you need to do to figure this out is to set up a division equation!
Because only 384/400 died, that would be the equation. And when plugging that into a calculator you get 96%.
Fun fact! If the product had killed only 380/400 roaches, then the commercial would be telling the truth.
