Question

Out of 230 racers eho started the marathon, 209 completed the race, 14 gave up, and 7 were disqualified. What percentagr did not complete the marathon?

Answer 1

9%

Explanation:

Now, to get the percentage that did not complete the marathon, we need to subtract the number of racers who completed from the total. This is 230 - 209 = 21

It means 21 did not complete the marathon. They were either disqualified or gave up while on the race.

Hence, the percentage would be 21/230 * 100%

21/230 * 100 = 9%
