Using the frequency table below what percent of people surveyed were very satisfied or satisfied? Round to the nearest percent.
very satisfied 59
satisfied 42
neutral 12
dissatisfied 8
very dissatisfied 5
To find the percentage of people who were very satisfied or satisfied, we add the frequencies for those two categories:
59 (very satisfied) + 42 (satisfied) = 101
Now we divide this total by the sum of all the frequencies and multiply by 100 to get the percentage:
101 / (59 + 42 + 12 + 8 + 5) = 101 / 126 ≈ 0.8016
Rounded to the nearest percent, approximately 80% of people surveyed were very satisfied or satisfied.
