Problem

A telephone poll asked people whether they like playing golf. Of the 90,000 people polled, \( 65 \% \) like playing golf. How many people said they like playing golf?

Solution

Step 1 :\( \text{Percentage of people who like golf} = 65\% \)

Step 2 :\( \text{Number of people who like golf} = \text{Total people polled} \times \text{Percentage of people who like golf} \)

Step 3 :\( \text{Number of people who like golf} = 90000 \times 0.65 = 58500 \)
