In a certain set of numbers, the ratio of integers to non integers is 2:3. What percent of the numbers in the set are integers?
1) 20%
2) 33 1/3%
3) 40%
4) 60%
5) 66 2/3%

The relationship between related dataset can be represented in ratios and/or proportions using the ":" symbol. The percentage of integers in the set is 40%

To do this, we make use of the following representations:

[tex]i \to[/tex] integer

[tex]n \to[/tex] non-integer

So, we have:

[tex]i : n = 2 :3[/tex]

The percentage of integers is calculated as:

[tex]i\% = \frac{i}{i+n} * 100\%[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]i\% = \frac{2}{2+3} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]i\% = \frac{2}{5} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]i\% = 0.4 * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]i\% = 40\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage of integer is 40%
