A used-car lot has 120 vehicles for sale. A sample of 15 of these vehicles finds that 6 of them have previously been in an accident.
What is the best estimate of the percent of the used-car lot's vehicles that have previously been in an accident?
Enter your answer in the box.
6 out of every 15 have been in an accident
how many 15's are there in 120? Eight
8 x 6 = 48 of 120 might have been in anaccident
Hey there, Guest!
120 divided by 15 = 8
8 times 5 = 48
\(\frac{48}{120}\) equals 40%
40% of the cars were previously damaged in an accident.
(120 ÷ 15) ÷ 6 = 40%.
Hope this helped! :)
