plz solve it CORRECTLY step by step ​

Answer 1

`\%Absent = 80.20\%`

Explanation:

Given

The attached data

Required

%Absentee on Friday

First, calculate the total present

`Present = 42 + 36 + 40 + 36 + 38`

`Present = 192`

Calculate the %Present on Friday

`\%Present = (Friday)/(Present) * 100\%`

`\%Present = (38)/(192) * 100\%`

`\%Present = (3800)/(192)\%`

`\%Present = 19.80\%`

Using complement rule:

`\%Absent = 100\% - \%Present`

`\%Absent = 100\% - 19.80\%`

`\%Absent = 80.20\%`
