she mailed 45,128 surveys and received 17,892 responses approximately what % of people responded to the survey

1 answer

To find the response percentage, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Response Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of Responses}}{\text{Total Surveys Mailed}} \right) \times 100 \]

Plugging in the numbers:

\[ \text{Response Percentage} = \left( \frac{17,892}{45,128} \right) \times 100 \approx 39.6% \]

So, approximately 39.6% of the people responded to the survey.
