The pie chart shows the age distribution in a village of 200 people.

Age Groups:
- 25 to 60
- Over 60
- Under 25

b) What percentage of the villagers are under 25?

Answer :

a. The villagers that are over 60 are 100

b. 15% of the villagers are under 25

A First, we have to know that percentage is the quotient of a number and hundred. It is represented with the sign '%'

Now, from the information given, we have that;

The number of villagers = 200 people

From the chart, half of the villagers are over 60

50% of 200

50/100 × 200

= 100 people

b. 15% of the villagers are under 25

15/100 × 200

Multiply the value

40
