Question

A telephone poll asked people whether they like playing golf. Of the 10,000 people polled, 5% like playing golf. How many people said they like playing golf?

Answer 1

500 people

Explanation:

To find how many people said they liked golf, find 5% of 10,000, by multiplying 10,000 by 0.05:

10,000(0.05)

= 500

So, 500 people said they liked playing golf
