Answer 1

To find out how many households in the Basswood Crossing neighborhood have three TVs, you can use the percentage of households that have three TVs (45%) and the total number of households (140).

You can calculate it as follows:

\[
\text{Number of households with three TVs} = \text{Total households} \times \left(\frac{\text{Percentage of households with three TVs}}{100}\right)
\]

Substituting in the values:

\[
\text{Number of households with three TVs} = 140 \times \left(\frac{45}{100}\right)
\]
\[
= 140 \times 0.45
\]
\[
= 63
\]

So, **63 households** in the Basswood Crossing neighborhood have three TVs.
