700

55%

Step-by-step explanation:

70% of 1000 is equal to

{70/100) * 1000

= 0.70*1000

= 700.

This, 70% of 1000 means 700 out of 1000 said that miniskirts were not appropriate in the workplace.

b. 550 of 1000 respondents said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace. The percentage is

{550/1000) * 100

= 0.55*100

= 55%

Thus 55% of 1000 respondents said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace.
