Answer: 1626.24

Explanation:

Use Fish Formula

is/of=%/100

Plug 2,541 into the "of" position because the problem says "of 2,541 American Households". And the 64% into the "%" position.

Should look like this:

is/2541=64/100

You should end up with 1626.24, if your problem asks for the rounded answer it would be 1626.

When looking for these types of problems always look for KEYWORDS.
