Answer:
0.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosmetic company tested a new lotion on 2500 people.
Number of people had the allergic reaction = 15
so percentage of allergic patients = [tex]\frac{\text{number of allergic people}}{\text{total people taken for test}}\times 100[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{15}{2500}\times 100[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{15}{25}[/tex] = 0.6%
percentage of the people is 0.6%
