The library surveyed 180 people about their favorite type of movie. if 40% of the people chose action, how many people chose action

The correct answer is 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by analyzing the information we have:

We know that the total number of people surveyed was 180.

We also know that 40% of those people said their favorite movie type was action.

Now we just have to find out what number that 40% represents and we can do it in two ways:

One can be multiplying 180. 40 and divide the result by 100, which would give us the following result:

(180. 40) / 100 =

7200/100 = 72

Another way would be multiplying 180 by 0.40:

180 0.40 = 72

As we can see, in both ways we arrive at the same result: 72. Therefore the correct answer is 72.
