Question

65% of a group of people have brown eyes.

How many people are in the group if 260 people have brown eyes?

Answer 1

There are 400 people in the group

Explanation:

people with brown eyes = people * percentage with brown eyes

We know that 65 percent have brown eyes

There are 260 people with brown eyes.

We are looking for people

260 = people * .65

Divide each side by .65

260/.65 = people

400= people
