free round trip tickets Hawaii were given to 0.4% of the people staying at a hotel. Larry says that tickets were given to 4/10 of the people at the hotel.

Answer: He is badly mistaken! It's 4/1000

Larry needs to learn how to read percentages!

Step-by-step explanation:

4/10 would be 40%  For every 100 guests, 40 free tickets would be given away. A very popular offer, but the hotel will soon be out money, and out of business!

0.4% is less than 1% . As a decimal it is 0.004. That is Four thousandths!

Only 4 out of every 1000 people were given free round trip tickets to Hawaii.
