Part C: Give an example of a situation in which a percentage is greater than 100%. (2 points)

Question 3 options:

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

A: 207

We know that percentage is out of 100, so we can divide 460 by 100 to find 1%, which is 4.6. We also know 45% percent of teenagers like comedies, so we multiply 4.6 by 45, or 207. 207 teenagers like comedies.

B. 80 teenagers

We know that 50% of teens Hannah surveyed like thrillers. We also know that 40 teenagers like thrillers. Using multiplication, we can multiply 40 by 2, since 50% is half, we need to multiply by 2 to get the total number of teenagers. Hannah surveyed 80 teenagers.
