% of the people surveyed were satisfied with the car

Answer 1

what percent of 2300 is 1265 is the question , sooo divide 1265 by 2300. why? b/c 2300 is the total.. so that goes in the denominator and 1256 is our give number so that goes in the numerator of the fraction of those numbers to give us their ratio :) or percentage.. if you understand that.. you're on a good road.

Explanation:

1265 / 2300 = .55 or 55% :) a bit more than 1/2 of the people .. which makes total sense b/c 1/2 of 2300 is 1150 right? so 50% of 2300 is 1150

55% :) is the answer
