Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

Exactly 50% of the votes were in favor of a new speed limit.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 16 votes were in favor of a new speed limit and 16 votes were not. From this, we can determine the total amount of votes.

Then, using this information we can find the percentage of how many were in favor of the vote.

If 16 of the votes were in favor, we can divide these votes by the total votes to get a percentage.

Then, we multiply this decimal by 100 in order to convert our answer to a percentage form.

Therefore, 50%, or half of the voters, were in favor of a new speed limit.
