16 people did not choose blueeeeeee

Explanation:

Answer 2

Stephanie surveyed a total of 25 students. 9 of them chose blue as a favorite color, and 16 did not. We will focus on those that did not choose blue as a favorite color.

16 out of 25 students did not choose blue as their favorite color. Divide 25 into 16:


`16 / 25 = 0.64`

Multiply this decimal by 100 to find the percentage:


`0.64 * 100 = 64`

64% of students did not choose blue as their favorite color.
