Answer 3

Convert you percent in to numbers so now you have 0.28 and 0.33. Now multiply it by 639 and you should get an answer. : )

Answer 4

Both of the percents? how will I know which one is correct?

Answer 5

cause it's saying "between" so the numbers you get will be "between" the two percents.

\[(628 \times 0.22 \space \space \space \space, \space \space \space \space 628 \times 0.33)\]

Now just find the average.

Add the numbers together and divide by the number of numbers. (The sum of values divided by the number of values). Arrange the numbers in order, find the middle number. (The middle value when the values are ranked).
