Part 1 of 2

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

of the meals studied, 1% of them had less than 10 grams of fat.

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat?

(b) Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

To find the percentage of meals with less than 10 grams of fat, count the number of meals with less than 10 grams of fat and divide by the total number of meals; multiply this figure by a hundred.

(A) Total number of meals = 550

Number of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77

Percentage of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77/550 × 100

= 0.14 × 100 = 14%

(B) Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth of a percent means approximating it to the nearest multiple of 10 that is not more than 100 (where 100 here represents a full cent or 'percent').

The multiples of 10 that are close to 14 are 10 and 20. The closest being 10, your answer becomes 10%
