Question

70 students at a school were asked to complete a survey about the location of their next field trip. 28 students chose the zoo 33 students chose the amusement park. The remaining students did not complete the survey . Which expression gives the percent of survey participants who chose the zoo?

Answer 1

28 + 33 = 61

so
28/61 x100
=45.9% (1dp)

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 45.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the percent of survey participants who chose the zoo, we need to determine how many participants completed the survey.

We know that:

28 students chose the zoo

33 students chose the amusement park

9 students did not complete the survey

So, the total amount of participants who completed the survey is:

28+33=61

Then, we have to determine the rate of participants who chose the zoo:

$\frac{28}{61}*100\\45.9%$

Finally, the answer is 45.9%
