According to a hospital survey, 82% of nurses were highly satisfied at their job. Of 145 nurses, how many were highly satisfied?
To find the number of nurses who were highly satisfied, we need to calculate 82% of the total number of nurses.
82% of 145 nurses = (82/100) x 145 nurses = 0.82 x 145 = 118.9 nurses.
Since we can't have a fraction of a nurse, we can round this number to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, 118 nurses were highly satisfied at their job.
