Question

1,500 people were surveyed and 30 out of every

100 people surveyed have freckles. Based on the
results of this survey, how many people do not
have freckles?

Answer 1

So since 1,500 people were surveyed and 30/100 have freckles, you would multiply both sides by 15 to get 450 and 1,500. So that means 450 people who took the survey have freckles i believe, so then you would subtract 1,500-450 and you are left with 1,050. The answer should be 1,050.
