Glen invited 25 people to his birthday party.
20 people attended the party and 5 people did not attend.
What percent of the people whom Glen invited did not attend the party?

Respuesta :

Answer:

20% of the invited people did not attend

Step-by-step explanation:

5 out of 25 people invited didn't attend Glen's party. That means the following:

[tex]\frac{5}{25}[/tex]  people didn't come which simplifies to  [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Multiply [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] by the giant one [tex]\frac{20}{20}[/tex] so the denominator is 100 which is the denominator used to find percentages.

You end up with [tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex] = 20%

Answer:

20% of the people who were invited did not attend the party.
