The bar graph shows the numbers of reserved campsites at a campground for one week. What percent of the reservations were for Friday or Saturday? Write the percent as a mixed number in simplest form.

Respuesta :

The use of the conjunction "or" for "Friday or Saturday" means that you have to include the reservations for both days.

The graph has these values:

Mon: 5
Tue: 3
Wed: 4
Thu: 7
Fri: 26
Sat: 30
Sun: 9

The total number of reservations for the week is 5+3+4+7+26+30+9 = 84

The number of reservation for Friday and Saturday is: 26+30 = 56

The percent is (56/84)*100 =

Now simplify:  (8*7)(4*25) / (4*21) % = 1400/21 %

To convert to mix number divide 1400 / 21 and use the whole part of the quotiend plus the residue divided by the dividend, which is 66+ 14/21.

So the mixed number is 66 and 14/21 %

Answer: 66 and 14/21 %
