Question

After a concert for 1,200 people, only 9 people said they would not go to see the band again. What percent of the people who went to the concert said they would not go to see the band again?

Answer 1

0.75

NO SPECIAL SYMBOLS

Answer 2

`(9)/(1200) = (x)/(100)` is your equation. Cross multiply. 9*100 and 1200*x


`900=1200x` Now divide by 1200 to solve for x

.75=x so your percent is .75%

Hope that helps.
