1/10 of the current U.S. population has diabetes. of the people with diabetes have not been diagnosed with the disease. 2/5 What fraction of the U.S. population has undiagnosed diabetes? Write the answer in simplest form.
1/2
2/10
2/50
1/25
To find the fraction of the U.S. population with undiagnosed diabetes, we need to multiply the fraction of people with diabetes who have not been diagnosed (2/5) by the fraction of the current U.S. population that has diabetes (1/10).
(2/5) * (1/10) = 2/50
The fraction of the U.S. population with undiagnosed diabetes is 2/50, which is equivalent to 1/25.
