Question

in a comparison taste test of two drinks 780 people preffered Cranberry blast. Only 220 people preferred Melon splash. How many percent of people like cranberry blast?

Answer 1

78% more people preferred Cranberry blast. You would add 780 to 220, giving you an even 1,000. Since you want to find the percent of people who perferred Cranberry Blast, you would make a fraction of 780 and 1000, giving you 780/1000. To find the percent, simply do 780/1000, since a fraction can also be represented as a division problem. Hope this helped!!!
