Question

Theresa is conducting a marketing survey. She malled 12,546 surveys and received 4,391 responses. Approximately what percentage of people responded to the survey? A) 82% B) 44% C) 35% D) 29%

Answer 1

The percentage is 35%

Here, we want to get the number of people that responded to the survey

What we have to do here is to divide the number of respondents by the total number of surveys and multiply by 100%

We have this as;

$\frac{4391}{12546}\times\text{ 100 \% = 34.99 = 35\% }$
