Question

Seven of the Apple computers have specialized movie editing software. Approximately what percent of the Apple computers can be used for editing movies?

Answer 1

To calculate the percent of Apple computers that can be used for editing movies, we need the total number of computers. Once known, use the formula: (Number with software ÷ Total computers) × 100%. An example was given with 20 computers, yielding 35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine what percent of the Apple computers can be used for editing movies, we would need to know the total number of Apple computers in question. Since we only know that seven of them have specialized movie editing software, we cannot calculate the percentage without the total count.

If the total number is provided, the formula to calculate the percentage would be:

Percentage = (Number of Apple computers with movie editing software ÷ Total number of Apple computers) × 100%

For example, if there are 20 Apple computers in total, the calculation would be:

Percentage = (7 ÷ 20) × 100% = 35%

Therefore, 35% of the Apple computers could be used for editing movies in this scenario.

Answer 2

If there are 30 Apple computers and 7 of the computers have a specialized movie editing software, then that would be 23.3333333% of the Apple computers can be used for editing movies.

7/30x100= 700/30

700/30= 23.33%
