Question

in a factory of 150 workers 18 were absent on that day what percent of workers were present on that day

Answer 1

In a Factory=150 workers
Absent=18 workers

Present worker=150-18=132 workers
Absent workers percentage
=18/150×100
=12%

Present worker Percentage=100%-12%
=88%

Hence,Present workers=88%

Answer 2

Given:

In a factory of 150 workers, 18 were absent on a day.

To find:

The percent of workers were present on that day.

Solution:

As given, we have,

The total number of workers in a factory = 150

The number of workers that were absent on that day = 18

So,

the number of workers that were present on that day = 150 - 18 = 132

Hence,

The percentage of workers that were present on that day

$= \frac{number \: of \: present \: workers}{total \: number \: of \:workers} \times 100$

$= \frac{132}{150} \times 100$

$= \frac{132 \times 2}{3}$

$= 44 \times 2$

$= 88\%$

Hence, the percentage of workers that were present on that day is 88%.
