Answer: The proportion of businesses who did not respond = 54.67%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Total businesses = 150
Businesses responded = 68
Businesses did not respond = 150- 68 = 82
The proportion of businesses who did not respond =
[tex]\dfrac{\text{Businesses did not respond}}{\text{Total businesses}}\times100[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{82}{150}\times100=54.67\%[/tex]
Hence, the proportion of businesses who did not respond = 54.67%
