Respuesta :

519 people smoked

Explanation

to figure out this we need to find teh 13.2 % of 3932

so

Step 1

Convert 13.2% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100

then

[tex]13.2\text{ \%}\rightarrow\frac{13.2}{100}\rightarrow0.132[/tex]

Step 2

now, multyply the number by the percentage ( in decimal form),so

[tex]\begin{gathered} 13.2\text{ \% of 3932=0.132}\cdot3932=519.04 \\ \text{rounded} \\ 519 \end{gathered}[/tex]

therefore, the answer is

519 people smoked
