how to solve:
In a survey at a supermarket, 78 out of 120 people surveyed said that they shopped more than once a week. What percent of the people is that?
I think it would be 65%. Divide 78 by 120 and you'll get 0.65, then times that by 100, and you'll get 65.
To solve this problem, you need to find the percent of people who shopped more than once a week out of the total number of people surveyed.
First, let's calculate the percent:
Percent = (Number of people who shopped more than once a week / Total number of people surveyed) * 100
Now, let's substitute the given values:
Percent = (78 / 120) * 100
Next, perform the calculation:
Percent = 65
So, 65% of the people surveyed shopped more than once a week.
