Question: 508
2. Bob’s iPod contains 800 songs. If 240 songs are either jazz or rap songs, what percent of his collection is jazz or rap?
- A. 12%
- B. 15%
- C. 20%
- D. 25%
Correct Answer: E
Explanation:
E is correct. To calculate the percent, divide the number of jazz and rap songs by the total number of songs. 240 ÷ 800 = 0.30. To change that to a percent, move the decimal point two places to the right and add the percent sign to get the correct answer of 30%.
