Question

I need help translating this into an inequality.
In a local election, 32,400 people voted. This was an increase of 6% over the last election. How many people voted in the last election? Round to the nearest whole person.

Answer 1

106% of 32400
1.06*32400

Answer 2

32400=1.06x means x is about 30566.

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

its 1.06*32400

Answer 5

The key to this one is reading the sentence. The 32400 voters is six percent more (106% of) the number of voters in the previous election. That translates as above.

Answer 6

Nick, you are wrong.

Answer 7

100:106
