A toy manufacturer estimates that \( 6 \% \) of its products are defective. If 550 toys are produced in one day, how many will be defective?

To find the number of defective toys, we can use the percentage of defective products and the total number of toys produced. Given: - Percentage of defective toys = \( 6\% \) - Total number of toys produced = \( 550 \) We can calculate the number of defective toys using the formula: \[ \text{Number of defective toys} = \left( \frac{\text{Percentage of defective toys}}{100} \right) \times \text{Total number of toys} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Number of defective toys} = \left( \frac{6}{100} \right) \times 550 \] Calculating this: \[ \text{Number of defective toys} = 0.06 \times 550 = 33 \] Therefore, the number of defective toys is \( \boxed{33} \).
