Answer:
Approximately 490 films were rated R.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total films recently rated is 720. About 68% of the films were rated R. Thus, 68% of 720 is calculated below.
[tex]68\% \: of \: 720 \: films[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{68}{100} \times 720[/tex]
[tex] = 0.68 \times 720[/tex]
[tex] = 489.6[/tex]
[tex] = 490 \: films \: (approximated)[/tex]
Therefore, if 720 films were recently rated, 68% of films rated R is about 490 films.
