Question

Please help me!!!! i cant see files so just tell me!

A flock of sheep has 182 white sheep and 98 spotted sheep. Which proportion can be used to determine p, the percent of the flock that has spots?

Answer 1

D) 98/280 = p/100

Explanation:

Since p is the missing percentage, it has to be OVER 100, so C is eliminated.

Total:

182 + 98 = 280

Spotted sheep probability:

98/280 = 0.35 or 35%

To check:

`(98)/(280) =(p)/(100) \\\\280p=9800\\x=35`
