a television viewer report indicates that out of every 111 televisions owned by households in the country, 53 household televisions were turned on during a one - hour time slot. the report further shows that of the 53 household televisions turned on during the time slot, 25 household televisions were tuned in to a specific program. a marketing executive for a company wants to determine the rating for the specific program. what would the percentage be if the rating is based on number of household televisions viewing a specific program from all available household televisions in the entire country, whether turned on or not? round the percentage, however, to the nearest hundredth if necessary. you do not need to include a sign for percentage. only the number, rounded to the hundredth, will be necessary.
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate the percentage
The formula for percentage is $\frac{\text{Number of TVs tuned to the program}}{\text{Total number of TVs}} \times 100$. Here, the number of TVs tuned to the program is $25$ and the total number of TVs is $111$. So the percentage is $\frac{25}{111}\times100$.
Step2: Perform the division and multiplication
$\frac{25}{111}\approx0.225225$. Then $0.225225\times 100 = 22.5225$.
Answer:
$22.52$
