Question

36 of the 1035 people who watched the new sequel to a popular action movie:

Option 1: 2.5%
Option 2: 3.5%
Option 3: 4.5%
Option 4: 5.5%

Answer 1

To find the percentage of people who watched the sequel, we divide the number of people who watched it by the total number of viewers and multiply by 100. The result is approximately 3.48%, which rounds to 3.5%, making Option 2 the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the percentage of people who watched the sequel out of the total number of people, we use the formula:

(Number of people who watched the sequel / Total number of people) * 100 = Percentage

Plugging in the numbers from the question:

(36 / 1035) * 100 = 3.48%

Since 3.48% is closest to 3.5%, Option 2 is the correct answer.
