You conduct a study on eye color and you questioned 550 people a hundred and ten of them have brown eyes and 44% of them have blue eyes what percentage of the people you question has blue or brown eyes
110/550 = 0.2 = 20%
20% + 44% = _______%
64%
68%
36
To find the percentage of people who have blue or brown eyes, you need to add the percentage of people with blue eyes to the percentage of people with brown eyes.
First, calculate the number of people with blue eyes:
44% of 550 = (44/100) * 550 = 0.44 * 550 = 242.
Next, calculate the number of people with brown eyes:
110 out of 550 = 110/550 = 0.2.
Now, add the number of people with blue eyes to the number of people with brown eyes:
242 + 110 = 352.
To find the percentage, divide the total number of people (352) by the total number of people surveyed (550) and multiply by 100:
(352/550) * 100 = 64%.
Therefore, 64% of the people you surveyed have blue or brown eyes.
