To study peanut allergies in children, 320 babies who were at high risk for developing peanut allergies were given peanuts. 3.2% of these babies developed peanut allergies. How many babies in the study developed peanut allergies? This is what i did: i cross multiply x with 100 and 3.2 with 320 then divided both sides by 100 to get x=10.24. I dont think its right because to me it doesnt make any sense my question is where did i go wrong? How many babies did not develop peanut allergies
