At the college football game there were 48,000 people. If 77% of the
people at the game were supporters for the home team, how many
people were supporting the home team? *

Answer 1

36,960 people

Explanation:

`(is)/(of)=(percent)/(100)` is the formula to solve for this equation, here plugging in all our numbers gives us
`(x)/(480,000) = (77)/(100)`.

We do not know our "is" so we replace it for x and solve →
`x=(480,000)((77)/(100) )` = 36,960 people
