The answer is 20%. Let me explain.
There are a total of 20 people that surveyed right?
If 10 chose soccer and 6 chose golf that's 16 athletes that chose another sport other than football.
20 people minus the 16 non-football lovers equals 4.
So 4 people chose football.
That means 4/20 as a fraction.
As a percent (because a percent is always out of one hundred) it's 20% because if you multiplied the denominator to get a base of 100 and multiplied the same number to the numerator you'd get 20/100.
The number would be five because 5*20=100.
You'd change that fraction to a percent which makes it 20%. Hope this helped

The 20% of the athletes chose football if out of 20 athletes surveyed, 10 athletes chose soccer as their favourite sport, 6 chose golf.

What is the percentage?

It is defined as the ratio of two numbers expressed in the fraction of 100 parts. It is the measure to compare two data, the % sign is used to express the percentage.

Number of athletes choose football = 20 - 10 - 6 = 4

Percent f the athletes chose football = (4/20)×100

= 0.2×100

= 20%
