Out of the 180 students at a summer camp, 72 signed up for canoeing. There were 23 students who signed up for trekking, and 13 of those students also signed up for canoeing. Use a two-way table to organize the information and answer the following question: Approximately what percentage of students signed up for neither canoeing nor trekking? 72% 40% 54% 98% Last one and then I am done!!! ^~^
@dude This is my last one!! ^~^
We want to find the number of people who went canoeing or trekking so we add them up and subtract the 13 72+23-13= people who signed up for canoeing or trekking (an activity)
82
Right so be subtract that from the total amount because we want to find people who didn't sign up for anything
92
Right so thats the number of students, not a percentage To find percentage divide it by the total amount \(\%=\large \frac{part}{total}\)
0.51
Right so that is decimal form, to get as a percentage multiply that by 100
51
Oh wait, you subtracted incorrectly, 180-82 is not 92
o.o
its 98 my bad
Yeh
98/180
0.54 0.54*100 = 54%
Right-o
I have two more and then I am done, i missed them by accident
Its okay
