Answer:
9.17% of racers did not complete the marathon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Out of 229 racers who started the Eugene marathon.
208 completed the race, 17 gave up 4 disqualified .
Then total racers who could not complete the marathon is
229-208=21
Now calculate the percentage:
[tex]Percentage=\frac{21}{229}\times 100\\\\Percentage=\frac{2100}{229}\\\\Percentage\approx9.17[/tex]
Hence, 9.17% of racers did not complete the marathon.
