Question

A survey shows that 82% of youth most often use the internet at home. What fraction of the most often use the internet somewhere else

Answer 1

9/50

Explanation:

A survey showed that 82% of youth most often use the Internet at home. What fraction of youth surveyed most often use the Internet SOMEWHERE ELSE?

100% minus 82% equals 18%, so thats should give you the fraction of 18/100 and 18/100 divided by 2 will equal 9/50. So the answer in fraction form is 9/50.

Answer 2

82% as a fraction would be 82 over 100 when you simplify that you get 41 over 50. The missing percent is 18 because 18%+82%=100%. Next you would need to write 18 over 100 and then simplify that. You write it as 18 over 100 because it is 18 hundredths. If you wrote 18% as a decimal it would be 0.18 which is 18 hundredths which would be 18 over 100
