A shoe factory inspect all of the chew before shipping it rejects three out of every 200 pair of shoes has detective what percentage of shoes are rejected A 15% B 6% C 1.5 D 3%

Answer 1

To find the percentage of shoes that are rejected, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage rejected} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of rejected shoes}}{\text{Total number of shoes}} \right) \times 100 \]

In this case, the factory rejects 3 out of every 200 pairs of shoes. So, we plug in the numbers:

\[ \text{Percentage rejected} = \left( \frac{3}{200} \right) \times 100 \]

Calculating that gives:

\[ \text{Percentage rejected} = 0.015 \times 100 = 1.5% \]

Thus, the answer is C 1.5%.
