A survey was conducted of students at a highschool and at a college to determine students favorite subjects. The results are shown in the table. What percentage of the students are college students that prefer history? Highschool-
history(80)
math (50)
science (70)
total(200)

College-
history (70)
math(60)
science (70)
total (200)

History total (150)
Math total (110)
science total (140)

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

So I’m not sure this is high school math because i’m still in grade school but...

So what you have to do is make a ratio

so if 70 students out of 200 in college prefer history the ratio should be 70 to 200 or 70:200

Then you want to do 70 * 200 which then you get a answer of .35

then to make .35 into a percent you move the decimal two spaces to the left for a answer of 35%

Hope this helps!

you half the rectangle that you ae asking about so then you would see the scale factor of 1/2 the one u have selected, the one on top is half.
