Consider a survey involving the cookie preferences of a sample of 1,214 adults. if 9% answered "sugar/shortbread," find the decimal and reduced fraction of that percentage.

fraction
solve for the base. round to hundredths when necessary.
140 is 120% of what number?
solve the word problem for the portion, rate, or base.
a quality control process finds 46.8 defects for every 7,800 units of production. what percent of the production is defective?
%

109.26: decimal

5469/50: reduced fraction

140 is 120% of what number?  116.67

What percent of the production is defective?  0.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, we know that 1214 is 100%, so we apply the rule of three to find 9% of the sample:

Now, to find the reduced fraction we operate with the decimal and then we reduce the resulting fraction:

For the second exercise we proceed, again, with the rule of three:

For the third question, we will apply the rule of three again:
