Answer:

Well, the percent is 9.5238 but if you round to the nearest tenth you get 90.5.

8 were defective.

Defective percent = 8/84 x 100 = 9.5238% were defective.

Percent not defective = 100% - 9.5238% = 90.4761%

Rounding to the nearest tenth 90.5% were not defective.

The question doesn’t say how to round the answer so you may need to round differently than I did.
