Three of every seven sales transactions at Dollar Discount are on credit cards. What percent of the transactions are NOT credit card sales? (Round percentages to the nearest tenth.)
4/7 = 0.5714 = 57.1%
To find the percent of transactions that are NOT credit card sales, we need to subtract the percent of credit card sales from 100%.
Step 1: Determine the percentage of credit card sales.
Since three out of every seven transactions are credit card sales, we can calculate the percentage by dividing 3 by 7 and multiplying by 100.
(3/7) * 100 = 42.9%
Step 2: Subtract the percentage of credit card sales from 100%.
100% - 42.9% = 57.1%
Therefore, approximately 57.1% of the transactions are NOT credit card sales.
