Question

In 2018 there were 238 Republicans and 201 Democrats in the House of Representatives. Find the percentage of Democrats in the House of Representatives in 2018

Answer 1

45.7% or if rounded, 46%

Explanation:

1st, you add up the total of people in the House of Representatives.

238+201=439

Then divide the number of Democrats 201 by the total number 439 to get .457 which is 45.7% or if you need to round 46%

To double check, multiply the total number 439 X 45.7% to get 200.6
