P₂₅ = ? (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Answer 1

Diane, since you don't give us the method from the textbook, I'll just show you.

 

All you do is multiply the percentage by "n", the number of ages.

 

.25(36) = 9.  If we were to come up with a decimal, we would round up to the nearest whole number. Since we have a whole number, we count to the 9th age, which is 41.

 

Hope this helps!
