Answer 1

Answer:

The whole = 48

The percentage = 78%

The part = 37.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of responses for the competition = 48 responses

The percentage that voted for the black T-shirt = 75%

The whole = The total number of responses for the competition = 48

The percentage = 78% = The part/(The whole) × 100

The part = The missing information

To find the part, we substitute the values of the whole, and the percentage into the given following equation

The part = The percent × The whole

∴ The part = 78% × 48 = 78/100 × 48 = 37.44

The part = 37.44.
