Luda [366]

Answer:

82.5% Americans owned a TV also owned a DVD player .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}

As given

Of the 114.2 million Americans who owned a TV, 94.2 million also owned a DVD player.

Here

Part value = 94.2 million

Total value = 114.2 million

Putting all the values in the formula

Percentage = \frac{94.2\times 100}{114.2}

Percentage = \frac{94200\times 10}{1142\times 10}

Percentage = \frac{942000}{11420}

Percentage = 82.5 %

Therefore 82.5% Americans owned a TV also owned a DVD player .

Garth estimated the height of the door to hiss classroom in meters. What is a reasonable estimate?
kobusy [5.1K]
It is just asking how many meters tall are doors usually at. Clearly 30 meters isn't reasonable so just say how tall most doors are in meters.
