bee_bro is right
To find the percentage of people who do not like chocolate milk, we can subtract the percentage of people who do like chocolate milk from 100%.
To find the percentage of people who do like chocolate milk, we divide the number of people who like chocolate milk (14) by the total number of people (20).
14 ÷ 20 = 0.7
To convert a decimal to a percentage, we multiply by 100.
0.7 × 100 = 70%
Therefore, the percentage of people who do not like chocolate milk is 100% - 70% = 30%, which corresponds to the answer choice B.
------------------------
To determine which options are equivalent to 85%, we can convert each option to a decimal and see if it equals 0.85.
A. 0.085 is equal to 8.5% (move the decimal point two places to the right), so it is not equivalent to 85%.
B. 0.85 is equal to 85% (move the decimal point two places to the right), so it is equivalent to 85%.
C. 85/100 is equal to 0.85 (divide 85 by 100), so it is equivalent to 85%.
D. 19/20 is equivalent to 0.95 (divide 19 by 20), so it is not equivalent to 85%.
Therefore, the options that are equivalent to 85% are B and C.
