If you need further help on how they got the answer, this equation will take more time, but it will also help you understand these types of problems. Part÷Whole=Percent÷100
Part= X because it is what you are trying to find.
Whole=250 because it is what you are taking the percentage of.
Percent=80
Now you have:
X÷250=80÷100
Set this up in fraction form and cross multiply.
You get:
100x=250×80
250×80=20,000
100x=20,000
X=200

In one town 44% of all voters are Democrats if two voters are randomly selected for a survey find the probability that they are

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

0.194

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that BOTH are democrats means probability of "one being democrat" AND "another also being democrat".

The AND means we need to MULTIPLY the individual probability of a person being democrat.

Probability that a voter is democrat is 44% (0.44) -- stated in the problem

Now, Probability BOTH being Democrats is simply MULTIPLYING 0.44 with 0.44
