Answer 1

Given: The table showing the number visitors in 4 parks

To Determine: The percentage of the visitors in each park

Solution

Let us find the total number of visitors in all the parks

`\begin{gathered} Beach=7680 \\ Mountain=9600 \\ Forest=5280 \\ Plains=1440 \\ Total=24000 \end{gathered}`

Let us now find the percentage for each

`Percentage=(value)/(Total-value)*100\%`
`Percent(Beach)=(7680)/(24000)*100\%=32\%`
`Percent(mountain)=(9600)/(24000)*100\%=40\%`
`Percent(Forest)=(5280)/(24000)*100\%=22\%`
`Percent(Plains)=(1440)/(24000)*100\%=6\%`

Hence, each percentage is as inputed in the table below
