Question

question
a survey stopped men and women at random to ask them where they purchased groceries, at a local grocery
store or online.
what percent of the people surveyed shop online? round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.
answer
attempt 1 out of 4
%

Explanation:

Step1: Find total online shoppers

To find the number of people who shopped online, we add the number of women and men who shopped online. So, \(11 + 19 = 30\).

Step2: Find total surveyed people

To find the total number of people surveyed, we add all the values in the table. The number of women who shopped at the store is \(22\), women online is \(11\), men at the store is \(32\), and men online is \(19\). So total is \(22 + 11 + 32 + 19 = 84\).

Step3: Calculate the percentage

The formula for percentage is \(\frac{\text{Number of online shoppers}}{\text{Total number of surveyed people}} \times 100\). Substituting the values, we get \(\frac{30}{84} \times 100\). Calculating this, \(\frac{30}{84} \approx 0.3571\), and multiplying by \(100\) gives \(0.3571\times100 = 35.714\cdots\). Rounding to the nearest tenth of a percent, we get \(35.7\%\).

Answer:

\(35.7\)
