Question

6 people voted, and it ended up 84% to 16%. How many people voted for each option?​

Answer 1

see the explanation

Explanation:

we know that

To find out how many people voted for each option multiply the percentage in decimal form of each option by the total number of people

so

`84\%=84/100=0.84` --->
`0.84(6)=5.04=5\ people`

`16\%=16/100=0.16` --->
`0.16(6)=0.96=1\ people`
