Quizplus · Accepted Answer

We can set up a proportion to solve for the rate:

% / 100 = number of clients / total number of clients

We know that the number of clients is 362 and the total number of clients is 47, so we can substitute those values:

% / 100 = 362 / 47

To solve for %, we can cross-multiply and simplify:

47% = 36200 / 47
47% = 770.2128

Rounding to the nearest tenth of a percent, we get:

47% ≈ 770.2%

Therefore, the answer is choice C: 770.2.
