1 A toy manufacturer estimates that $6 \%$ of its products are defective. If 550 toys are produced in one day, how many will be defective?
\(\boxed{33}\) toys are estimated to be defective.
Step 1 :Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing the percentage by 100. So, 6% becomes \(\frac{6}{100} = 0.06\).
Step 2 :Multiply the total number of toys produced in one day (550) by the decimal equivalent of the percentage (0.06). So, the calculation is \(550 \times 0.06 = 33\).
Step 3 :\(\boxed{33}\) toys are estimated to be defective.
