Question:

The number of users that check social media daily is the same for '35 to 44' and '45-54' age groups. If there are 41 million '35 - 44' year olds in North America, how many '45-54' year olds are there to the nearest million?

Answer 1

No of People in age range of '35 - 44' in North America = 41 million

% of users that check social media daily –

• '35 - 44' = 28%
• '45 - 54' = 33%

No of People in age range of '35 - 44' in North America that check social media daily – 28% of 41 million = 11.48 million

Condition - The number of users that check social media daily is the same for '35 to 44' and '45-54' age groups.

Which means No of users in 35 – 44 = 45 – 54

So No of People in age range of '45-54' in North America that check social media daily – 11.48 million

11.48 million is 33% of total people in '45-54' age groups.

So 11.48 *100 /33 = 33.79 million

33.79 million is the size of total people in '45-54' year in North America.
