Dr. Hall files 320 insurance claims every month. If 5% of those claims are rejected, how many claims are rejected? How many are accepted?

We are asked to find 5% od 320, because we know that 5% of 320 insurances are rejected. 5%=0.05 Now we can multiply 0.05 by 320 0.05*320=16 - its our result

The number of rejected files is 16.
The number of accepted files is 304.
What is a percentage?
The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.
Example:
Required percentage value = a
total value = b
Percentage = a/b x 100
Example:
50% = 50/100 = 1/2
25% = 25/100 = 1/4
20% = 20/100 = 1/5
10% = 10/100 = 1/10
We have,
Total insurance files = 320
Percentage of rejected insurance files = 5%
The number of rejected files.
= 5% of 320
= 5/100 x 320
= 16
The number of accepted files.
= 320 - 16
= 304
Thus.,
16 insurance files were rejected .
304 insurance files were accepted .

Dr. Hall has 16 rejected claims and 304 accepted claims each month. The rejected claims are calculated as 5% of the total 320 claims. Therefore, the accepted claims are the total minus the rejected claims.
