Given:

Of the 100 people polled, 20 like playing golf.

To find:

The percentage of the people who like playing golf.

Solution:

In the poll,

Total number people = 100

Who like playing golf = 20

Now, percentage of the people who like playing golf is

$Required \%=\frac{\text{Number of people who like playing golf}}{\text{Total number people in poll}}* 100$

$Required \%=(20)/(100)* 100$

$Required \%=20$

Therefore, 20% of the people like playing golf.
