Question

An environment group invited 450 people to a fundraising event .315 people accepted the invention. What percent of the people accepted the invitation

Answer 1

Given:

Total number of invited people = 450

Total number of people who accept the invitation = 315

To find:

The percent of the people who accepted the invitation.

Solution:

We need to find 315 is what percent of 450.

`\%=\frac{\text{Number of invited people - Who accept the invitation}}{\text{Number of invited people}}* 100`

`\%=(450-315)/(450)* 100`

`\%=(135)/(45)* 10`

`\%=3* 10`

`\%=30`

Therefore, 30% of the people accepted the invitation.
