Question

In a recent survey of dog owners, it was found that 901, or 34%, of the owners take their dogs on vacation with them. Find the number of dog owners in the survey that do NOT take their dog on vacation with them rounded to the nearest whole number

Answer 1

we have that

34% represents 901 owners that take their dogs on vacation with them

so

the percentage of dog owners in the survey that do NOT take their dog on vacation is equal to

100%-34%=66%

Applying proportion

901/34=x/66

solve for x

x=(901/34)*66

x=1,749 owners
