144 people

Step-by-step explanation:

88% = 0.88

We multiply the total number with 0.88 to see how many people went in the water:

1200(0.88) = 1056

To find the number of those who did NOT go in the water, we subtract the product from the total number:

1200 - 1056 = 144

144 people DID NOT go in the water

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there at 1,200 ppl at the beach and 88% of them DID go into the water.

So the percent of people that DID NOT go into the water is 12%, because

100% - 88% = 12%

12% is the same as 0.12

Multiply 0.12 and 1,200 and you get: 144
