Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the total number of radios inspected, divide the number of defective radios by the percentage (expressed as a decimal). So, $27 = 0.00045 \times \text{Total number of radios}$. Solving for the total gives $\text{Total number of radios} = \frac{27}{0.00045} = 60,000$.
