Answer 1

The 63.5% of the students who do not exercise is the wrong percentage because 70% of the students do not exercise.

What is the percentage?

The amount of something is expressed as if it is a part of the total which is a hundred. The ratio can be expressed as a fraction of 100. The word percent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol ‘%’.

Miguel thinks that his data do not support the article's claim because 63.5% of the students who made the honor roll at his school do not exercise.

The percentage of the students who do not exercise will be

$\rm P = \dfrac{112}{160} \times 100\\\\P = 70\%$

The 63.5% of the students who do not exercise is the wrong percentage because 70% of the students do not exercise.
