Question

60 boys at a summer camp were asked to complete a survey about their favorite outdoor activity. 18 boys chose biking and 29 boys chose fishing. The remaining boys did not complete the survey. What expression gives the percent of survey participants who chose fishing?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: 29/18+29 x 100

Answer 2

Answer: The percent of survey participants who chose fishing= 61.70%

Explanation:

Total number of participants who completed survey= 18 + 29= 47

Now, the number of participants who chose fishing= 29

So,

The percent of survey participants who chose fishing= (the number of participants who chose fishing/the number of participants who completed survey)x100

The percent of survey participants who chose fishing= 29/47x100

The percent of survey participants who chose fishing= 61.70%
