In the state of indiana, 302500 people don't drive. if this is 5% of the population of indiana residents aged 5 years and older, estimate the population of indiana residents aged 5 years and older. express your answer rounded to the nearest hundredth of a million.

x = 6050000

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion

5%  = 302500 people

100%  = x

5/100 = 302500

100/100 = x            Cross multiply

5x / 100 = 302500 * 100/100                        Multiply both sides by 100

5x / 100 * 100 = 302500 * 100 / 100 *100    Do the multiplication

5x = 302500 * 100                                         Combine the right.

5x = 30250000                                              Divide by 5

5x/5 = 30250000/5

x = 6050000

1/100 of a million is the 5. It is already rounded to what it should be. So the answer is what we have.
