Answer 1

40

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer : The total number of respondents who took the survey are, 40

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that in a survey, 75% of respondents said that they watch TV for one hour each day.

Let the total number of respondents who took the survey be, 'x'

Number of respondents watch TV for one hour each day = 30

The % of the respondents said that they watch TV for one hour each day = 75%

`(30)/(x)* 100=75`

By solving the term 'x' we get:

`x=(30)/(75)* 100`

`x=40`

Thus, the total number of respondents who took the survey are, 40
