Question 42
15% of the people eligible to vote are between 18 and 25 years of age. In an election, 75% of those eligible to vote, who are between 18 and 25, actually voted. In that election, the number of persons between 18 and 25, who actually voted was what percent of those eligible to vote?
Solution
Let eligible voters = 100x
Eligible voters between 18 and 25 years of age = 15% of 100x = 15x
Eligible voters between 18 and 25 years of age who actually voted = 75% of 15x = 11.25x
Required percent = $$\frac{11.25x}{100x} * 100 = 11.25$$%
