Answer 1

0.5%

1) Let's start by setting the table

Car BusWalk Other

758530 7 105

2) Let's add them all up to find out how many people are there

758 +530 +7 +105 =1400

Let's now set a proportion to figure out the equivalence of those 7

1400 -------------- 100%

7 ------------------- x

Cross multiply those ratios:

1400x = 700

1400/1400x=700/1400

x=0.5

3) So 0.5% of the employees go to work on foot.
