Ok...please help...math question?

If there are 15000 people that have HIV/AIDS, and the population of a country is 34343220, then what percentage of them have HIV/AIDS?
Please, also show me how you got the answer...

The answer is 15000 divided by 34343220. Then multiply this answer by 100. That is your percent of people with aids

A percentage is a ratio per hundred.

You have 15000 people with aids.
You have a total population of 34343220

Your percentage is (15000/3434220) * 100

= 0.0044 * 100 = 0.4%

REMEmBER FOREVER;
LOWEST IS NUMERATOR, HIGHEST IS DEMOMINATOR!
Therefore: 1500000/34343220 = 0.04367%
Use it too for % on a test.
Willie got 37 out of 60 so he has 3700/60 = or 61.6%
Willie had better get to work!

(Group / population) x 100 = percentage
(15000 / 34343220) x 100 = 0.0437 %

divide the total number of people by the number of people with HIV/AIDS.
Convert to a percentage (move decimal two places to the right).

15000 / 34343220 = 0.00043677

0.00043677 * 100 = 0.043%

About 0.04%

4.36%
you have to do a proportion.

15000 over 34343220 and x over 100

then you multiply 15000 and 100. and divide by 34343220

15,000/34,343,220= 0.0004367 or 0.04367%
