Question

according to the survey below what percent of the workers walk to work?

drive alone-7,862,418

carpool-1,120,982

take public transit-144,959

walk-138,496

other means-149,641

work at home-346,626

Answer 1

in total there are 9,763,122

if you divide 138,496 by 9,763,122 you'll get 0.0141856

u multiply that by 100 and you'll get 1.42%

**hope you understand how i got it best of luck....

Answer 2

add everything up to get the total

7862418+1120982+144959+138496+149641+3...

this equals, 9763122. you put 138496 over 9763122, since that's how many people that walk, and you get 0.014, which is like 1.4% I'm not sure my calculations are correct so sorry if they're not

i got 1.4% by multiplying 0.014 by 100, or move the decimal right two places, since there are two zeros in one hundred.

Answer 3

you add all of the numbers up and than take the number of people walking and divide it by the total.

138496/(7862418+1120982+144959+138496+...

and multiply the result by 100 to get the percent.

138496/9763122   * 100% = 1.42%

the answer is : 1.42 %  

Answer 4

First you add all these numbers up and then equal the sum to 100:

After adding everything, you get 9,763,122.

Set this to equal 100%:

9,763,122 = 100

Now, you have to make a proportion. Figure out what the people who walk to work (138,496) are as a percentage of the total:

So (9,763,122 / 138,496) = (100 / X)

Let X = % of workers who walk

Cross Multiply, (138,496)(100) = 13,849,600

Divide, 13,849,600 by 9,763,122:

(13,849,600 / 9,763,122) = 1.418562628

So, rounding to the nearest hundredth, 1.42% of the workers walk.

Answer 5

Add every number:

7,862,418+1,120,982+144,959+138,496+14...

then divide 100 by that number:

100/9,727,122=1.0280533131999372476257...

then multiply that by the number of people that walk:

1.0280533131999372476257622758304e-5 X 138,496 =

1.4238127166493850904717757215341%

Answer 6

omg!!!!!!!!!!  

    thats soo hard!!! i wanna cheese cube. okay soooooo.......................WHAT GRADE R U IN???!!!!



P.S. im 11!!

Answer 7

This is easy.

Add them all together. (Say that number equals X)

then you indivudually divide each number by X.

Example

Drive alone divided by X  = %

Answer 8

1.41%

7,862,418+1,120,982+144,959+138,496+14...

=9,763,122

138,496/9,763,122=0.0141856*100=1.41%

Answer 9

add up all the numbers, then divide 138,496 by what u got.

its...not that hard.......................................

so u would get a decimal, then convert to percent by multiplying by 100...

once again.......its........not.........that....
