Question

A survey of all beings on planet Naxvip found that 96% preferred quert juice to all other juices. If 120 beings preferred quert juice, how many beings were surveyed altogether

Answer 1

125 people were surveyed altogether.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Percentage of people who preferred quert juice to all other juices = 96%

Number of people who preferred quert juice = 120

Let x be the number of people who were surveyed.

Thus, we can write the equation:

`96\%* x = 120\\\\(96)/(100)* x = 120\\\\x = (120* 100)/(96)\\\\x = 125`

Thus, 125 people were surveyed altogether.
