Do you mean What percentage of the population can name the current Prime minister?

If so, I would guess about 40%.

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Indeed. You understand well. Your understanding of English is getting fairly good now. I think you might be confused, though, when it comes to percentages. You do know 40% equates to 4 in every 10 people?

And that would mean 6 in every 10 people don't know who the Prime Minister is.

With that new knowledge in mind, have another go, lad.

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Ah, great, I thought that was what you meant but the sentence seemed a bit...... 'sticky'.

I don't want another go though, 40% was my answer and I'm sticking to it.

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

56.3%......

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Very precise.

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Well, as long as you get by. The English people will respect you for trying to engage in their language. Stick with it. It should get easier for you the more you practise.

Not really. He only gave his answer to one decimal point.

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Excellent! Is that Northern English or the far superior Southern English?

Re: What % of the Population Know Who the Prime Minister Is?

Too rude to be Northern.
