A recent survey of 1210 people found that out of all respondents, only 579 shop at local farmer's markets. Express the ratio of people who shop at local farmer's markets to the total as a decimal rounded to the thousandths place. 2 points

Is this a part-to-part or a part-to-whole ratio? 1 point

Only on your paper: Write a sentence about the ratio. (Remember not to use the word "ratio" and to use a percent version, if it is a part-to-whole ratio.)
