Question

Will give out medals. The neighborhood has 100 residents. Carl got 30% of them to sign-up for a community garden.

How many residents did Carl get to sign-up?

Answer 1

Carl got 30 residents to sign up because 100% of the residents would be 100 people, 50% would be 50 people, 20% would be 20 people, and so on.

Answer 2

If there are 100 people, then each one represents a single percent point.

Answer 3

Well.. It's 30 people. 30% x 100 = 30
