MATHCOUNTS PROBLEM OF THE WEEK
Now to find the percent of the total mentions that are education mentions, we divide and then multiply by 100. Thus, (162/13,527)(100) = 1.2%, to the nearest tenth, were education mentions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Obama: (642/7934)(100) = 8.09% McCain: (509/5593)(100) = 9.10%
McCain has made a higher percentage of health care “mentions.” ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iraq War: (5805/13,527)(100) = 42.914% Economy/Budget: (3330/13,527)(100) = 24.617%
42.914 – 24.617 = 18.3%, to the nearest tenth.
