A total of 36 students were surveyed to determine the mode of transportation that they use to travel to school. What percentage of students take a car to school? Round the percentage to the tenth. 12 people take a car.
To find the percentage of students who take a car to school, you need to divide the number of students who take a car by the total number of students surveyed, then multiply by 100.
Percentage = (Number of students who take a car / Total number of students surveyed) x 100
Percentage = (12 / 36) x 100 = 33.3%
Therefore, approximately 33.3% of students surveyed take a car to school.
