I think the answer to this question will help you solve this: http://web2.0calc.com/questions/utopia-has-a-population-of-17-000-if-70-of-the-population-voted-in-the-last-presidential-election-how-many-people-voted-in-the-election_1
Try using the method I used to turn 215% into a fraction and a decimal (dont forget to reduce the fraction if you can!)
If you have any other troubles, let me know.

Hi everyone, is this a ghost town or what? I am actually enjoying brake. But is the entire forum made up of US school children? I know the core group is not, but maybe the rest are. They certainly all seem to be on holidays. I hope that they are having lots of healthy fun!
Still, there were a few good questions and these were answered by Rosala, CPhill, NinjaDevo, Rom, Alan, Reinout-g, Heureka, Bertie, and Kitty. Thank you all.

On the 16th June I sent an email that listed a number of items that I asked Andre to consider, improve, or implement. Today I received a response:
# There was an error in the message centre. The inbox items were displaying properly but the outbox was displaying the incoming messages not the outgoing ones. Anyway, Andre has now fixed this problem.
# Andre has introduced a reply button on incoming messages. I have already used this, it works well.
# Messages can now be viewed from oldest to newest or newest to oldest.
# Andre has introduced an Export Button. There is a “save disk” icon at the top of each conversation. It exports in Microsoft Excel file format. I have used this, it definitely works. It appears to export so that the newest message is on the top no matter which way around the messages are displayed. The layout appears to be a little confusing if the messages are long. I’m sure that I will work it out quickly enough.
# Andre has introduced a new “To” input field in the compose message section. Before, there was just a drop down box but now you have to input something. If you input “tr” all the usernames containing “tr” anywhere in them are brought up. I entered R and no username that actually began with R was bought up – Maybe only the first 25 possibilities appear. I don’t know. It is a bit of a mystery at the moment.
# There are a few other issues that Andre is still considering.
# I just discovered that if you go into any person’s profile, there is a new button underneath the avatar. It says “All Profiles”, if you click into here you will find a comprehensive list of members. It is in alphabetical order and it gives joining date as well as number of questions asked and answered. I asked Andre for something like this but he did say that he had done it in his letter. So finding this was a nice surprise.
Once again, on behalf of all forum members, I would like to extend a very big thank you to Andre for all that he is doing to improve our forum.
