Question

Eric found that about 62% of 80 classmates at school like hip-hop music. However, 70% of his 60 relatives like hip-hop.

Do more classmates or relatives like hip-hop?

Answer 1

more classmates like hip-hop

step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

percentages (%) are out of 100

classmates: 62% of 80 is the same thing as

`(62)/(100) * 80 = 50 \: rounded \: up`

relatives: 70% of 60 is the same thing as

`(70)/(100) * 60 = 42`

we can clearly see that more classmates like hip-hop
