Question

Suppose that seven in ten couples disagree on a particular matter. What percent of couples disagree on the matter?

Answer 1

Answer: The percent of couples disagree on the matter=70%

Explanation:

We have given that seven in ten couples disagree on a particular matter.

Thus, the ratio of couples disagree to the total couples=
`(7)/(10)`

To convert it in percent we need to multiply it with 100, we get

The percent of couples disagree on the matter
`=(7)/(10)*100`

⇒The percent of couples disagree on the matter=70%
