In one particular suburb, there are 28 families that own a pug. If these owners make up 80% of all dog owners in this suburb, then how many dog owners are there in this neighborhood?

60%

Explanation:

To get percentages, take the part of a population that is being specified and divided that by the whole population and multiply that value by

100%

So there are 30 people that own boxers, this is the specific population that is being compared to the whole dog-owning population, which is comprised of 50 total families. So 30 50 can be reduced to 3 5 and that gives us 0.6

When that value is multiplied by

100%, it gives us our percentage of 0.6 ⋅ 100% = 60

26
