Question

A factory produced a batch of handheld video games, but 4% of the games were found to be defective. If the batch had 250 games in all, how many games in the batch were not defective

Answer 1

96% of 250 is 240
so 240 is your answer

Answer 2

The correct answer is 240.

Explanation:

Let's start by analyzing the information we have.

We know that in total 250 games were produced.

4% of them were found defective. That means that 10 games were defective.

We verify this by multiplying 250 x 0.04 = 10.

Knowing that the defective games are 10, we must only subtract that number from the total number of games in order to obtain the final number of games that were not defective:

250-10 = 240.

Therefore, the correct answer is 240.
