A local law school reports that 74% of last year's graduates are employed by law firms, 3% work for the government and 2% work for nonprofit organizations. The rest of the graduates work at jobs unrelated to law. Based on these outcomes, which of the following is the percentage of graduates working jobs unrelated to law?
5%
79%
69%
21%
Correct Answer : D
Percentages always add up to 100%. If we let x be the percent of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law, then
74%+3%+2%+x=100%
79%+x=100%
Subtract 79% from both sides of the equation
79%-79%+x=100%
x=100%-79%
x=21%
So, the number of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law is 21%.
