Q. The Board of Regents at Hazelbury College plans to expand the availability of health care for students on campus. Members of the board want to determine whether expanding the availability of virtual clinics or of in-person clinics would better meet students' needs. Each board member randomly surveys 20 students to see if there is a preference. Here are the data from one board member's sample:----------------- --Virtual clinics 7In-person clinics 11No preference 2----------------- --What percentage of the students in this board member's sample prefer in-person clinics?___%
Find Total Students: First, let's find the total number of students surveyed by this board member. We add up the students who prefer virtual clinics, in-person clinics, and those with no preference.Calculation: 7 (virtual) + 11 (in-person) + 2 (no preference) = 20 students.
Calculate Percentage: Next, we need to calculate the percentage of students who prefer in-person clinics. We use the formula for percentage: (Total number of students surveyedNumber of students preferring in-person clinics)×100%.Calculation: (2011)×100%=55%.
