Question

Any survey of 100 people, seven out of every 25 so that Abraham Lincoln was the greatest US president. What percent of the people does this represent?

Answer 1

28%

Explanation:

We have to find percentage of:

7 out of 25 people

This can be found by dividing 7 by 25 and multiplying the result by 100. This is how we find percentage one number is of another.

So,

7/25 = 0.28

Now, multiplying by 100:

0.28 * 100 = 28

So, that is 28% of the people
