Question #N646
A survey asked 100 people whether they prefer to watch movies at home or at the theater. 60 people said they prefer to watch movies at home, and 40 people said they prefer to watch movies at the theater. What percentage of the people surveyed prefer to watch movies at the theater?
A. 20%
B. 40%
C. 60%
D. 80%
Correct Answer is: B
The percentage of people who prefer to watch movies at the theater is the number of people who prefer to watch movies at the theater divided by the total number of people surveyed, multiplied by 100%. This gives us (40/100) * 100% = 40%.
