20 out of 800 products were found to be defective. At the same rate, how many defective parts will be found in 40,000 products? There would be Blank 1 defective parts out of 40000.

Answer: 1,000 products

Explanation:

If 20 out of 800 products are found to be defective, the percentage of defective products would be:

= 20 / 800

= 2.5%

At this same rate of 2.5%, if there are 40,000 products instead of 800, the number of defective products would be:

= 2.5% * 40,000

= 1,000 products
