Answer:
24% chance
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the total number of graduates in the table, that number is 2610, that will be your numerator.
You will look at the table for the total number of students, that is 10730, that will be the denominator.
Now divide the smaller number/numerator (2610) by the larger number/denominator (10730)
= 0.2432432...
Then, multiply by 100 to get the percentage: 24.32432...%
Now, round to the nearest percentage: 24%
Answer: 3/5
Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.6 is 6 tenths. So we can write 0.6 as the fraction 6/10.
Notice however that 6/10 is not in lowest terms.
So we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 which is 2.
So if we divide the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 3/5.
So 0.6 can be written as the fraction 3/5 which is in lowest terms.
