Answer 2

Answer:

Given:-

Of the 5675 people in a village 5448 are literate what is the percentage of literacy in the village ?

Answer:-

Total number of people in village = 5675

Number of literate people in a village = 5448

Suppose percentage of literacy in the village is x%.

Let us write in two forms,

the ratio of the number of literate people to the total number of the people in the village, obtained equation,and solve it.

Then we have

$= \frac{x}{100} = \frac{5448}{5675}$

$= \frac{x}{100} \times 100 = \frac{5448}{5675} \times 100$

$= x = 96$

∴ Percentage of literacy in the village is 96%
