Answer 1

Number of people voted given is wrong.

Question:

If 596 people voted in the election how many were over 65 years old.

The image of the problem is attached below.

Answer:

Number of people voted 65 years old = 149

Solution:

Number of people voted in the election = 596

Let us first write the formula for the part value when percentage is given.

`$\text {Part value}=\frac{\text {Percentage}}{100} * \text {Whole}$`

`$=(25)/(100)*596`

`=149`

Hence, number of people voted 65 years old = 149
