College students are a major target for advertisements for credit cards. At a university, 65% of students surveyed said they had opened a new credit card account within the past year.

Answer:

35,000 students did not open a new credit card account

Step-by-step explanation:

If 65% of students surveyed said they opened a new credit card account, the percentage of students that did not open a new credit card account is calculated as follows:

Total percentage = 100%

100% = 65% + (% of students that did not open a new account)

100 - 65 = % of students that did not open a new account

∴ % of students that did not open a new account = 100 - 65 = 35%

Next, let us convert this percentage to actual number

Total number of Students surveyed = 100,000

% of students that did not open a new account = 35%

35% of 100,000

= 35/100 × 100,000

= 0.35 × 100,000 = 35,000
