Answer:
x=0.87
86.67% of prescription claims are paid
Step-by-step explanation:
First we organize the data:
prescription claims submitted: 4500
Prescriptions: 3900
The rate of claims paid is calculated using the following formula:
[tex]x =\frac{Paid}{Total}[/tex]
We know that:
[tex]Paid = 3900\\Total = 4500[/tex]
So
[tex]x =\frac{3900}{4500}[/tex]
[tex]x =\frac{39}{45}[/tex]
[tex]x =\frac{13}{15}[/tex]
13 prescription claims out of 15 are paid
x=0.87
