Answer:

Percentage of votes in favour of new speed limit=50%

Step-by-step explanation:

There was a voting in Molly's town to set a new limit for the speed attained by a vehicle.

In Molly's town,

  • Number of votes recorded=38
  • Number of votes in favour of the new speed limit=19

We have to find the percentage of votes in favour of the new speed limit.

For that,the percentage of votes in favour=[tex]\frac{votes in favour of new speed limit×100}{total votes}[/tex]

Percentage of votes in favour=[tex]\frac{19*100}{38}[/tex]

Percentage of votes in favour=50%
