in a survey of 1,500 people who owned the same make of car, 600 indicated that they would buy the same make of car again. What percent of these people were satisfied with their car?

600/1500 *100

40%

100 * (600/1500) = _______%

To find the percentage of people who were satisfied with their car, we need to divide the number of people who indicated that they would buy the same make of car again by the total number of people surveyed and then multiply the result by 100.

First, let's calculate the percentage:
Percentage = (Number of people satisfied / Total number surveyed) x 100

In this case, the number of people satisfied is 600 and the total number surveyed is 1,500.

Now we can substitute these values into the formula:
Percentage = (600 / 1500) x 100

To calculate this, divide 600 by 1500:
Percentage = 0.4 x 100

Now multiply 0.4 by 100:
Percentage = 40

Therefore, 40% of the people surveyed who owned the same make of car were satisfied with their car.
