Answer:
Total no. of cases = 6954
No. of cases decided = 82
Percentage decided = (82/6954)x100 = 1.17%
Answer:
1.18%
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage can be found by dividing the part by the whole. then multiplying by 100.
(part/whole) * 100
In this problem, the part is the cases decided by the Supreme Court. The whole is the total number of cases filed.
(cases decided / cases filed) *100
There were 82 cases decided by the Supreme Court, out of a total of 6,954 cases filed.
(82/6954) *100
First, solve the parentheses and divide.
0.0117917745* 100
Multiply
1.17917745 %
Round to the nearest hundredth. The 9 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 7 up to an 8 in the hundredth place.
1.18 %
About 1.18% of the cases filed were decided by the Supreme Court.
