Independant adjudication. Settle an office argument:
Percentages.
Christ I can't believe I'm having to ask this.
2 periods of day, simply AM and PM , each has a number and a % of compliance.
1. 1728 events. 86% compliance
2. 18941 events. 85% compliance.
What is the percentage for the entire 24 hours period. Show how you worked it out.

So over the AM period:
86% of events compliant
0.86 * 1728 = 1486.08 compliant
PM:
85% of events compliant
0.85 * 18941 = 16099.85 compliant
Over 24 hrs:
16099.85 + 1486.08 = 17585.93 compliant out of 20669
17585.93 / 20669 = 0.850836... or 85.0836... %
Suspect there is a much easier way to do this!

You need the total number of events, the total compliant events and then the percentage.
Can't be bother to find out what 1728 is 86% of though!
5t
edit hang on are the figures given the total events or the compliant events?

Why???

Yep, although anything more than 2 s.f. is superfluous precision, so the answer is 85%.

Right... If it's a compliance question, there'll be rules or standard ways of calculating the bollo..., sorry, results.
What is the primary criterion? The time period or the number of events?
If it's by time period, then the answer, is 85.5%. If you refer back to the raw data, it's 85.something_smaller %.
HTH but it won't

Jesus is this still knocking about? I've had a couple of work experience lads in, and was getting them to run some statistical analysis. Neither of them had a clue how to do it. Hence the OP.
To answer a couple of points:
1. It's compliant, NOT complaint.
2. No, i am not a pilot.
Now, in the best tradition of Police Academy, move along, nothing to see here.

this is utter nonsence, you have to show all the figures to work out the percentage, for all we know the compliance level could be lower am.
