Question A:
Step 1 - Find the total number of people. Step 2 - Add the total number of people minus the people who watch comedy. Step 3 - Divide that number by the first number. Step 4 - Multiply by 100 to get the percentage.
39.76 + 44.02 + 46.86 + 51.12 + 52.54 = 234.3 234.3 − 52.54 = 181.76 234.3 181.76 ​ = 0.75 0.75 ∗ 100 = 75
