Definitions of Attendance Rate and Absence Percentage

Attendance Percentage: Represents the ratio of actual attendees to expected attendees, expressed as a percentage. A high attendance percentage indicates that most people attended the event.

Absence Percentage: Represents the ratio of absentees to expected attendees. The absence percentage and attendance percentage always add up to 100%. A high absence percentage indicates a large number of absentees.

How to Calculate Attendance and Absence Percentage

Formula for Attendance Percentage: \( \text{Attendance Percentage} = \frac{\text{Actual Attendees}}{\text{Expected Attendees}} \times 100\% \)

Formula for Absence Percentage: \( \text{Absence Percentage} = 100\% - \text{Attendance Rate} \)

Examples

Example 1: Actual attendees = 40, Expected attendees = 50, find the attendance and absence percentage.

Solution:

Attendance Percentage:

\( \text{Attendance Percentage} = \frac{40}{50} \times 100\% = 80\% \)

Absence Percentage:

\( \text{Absence Percentage} = 100\% - 80\% = 20\% \)

Example 2: Actual attendees = 75, Expected attendees = 80, find the attendance and absence percentage.

Solution:

Attendance Percentage:

\( \text{Attendance Percentage} = \frac{75}{80} \times 100\% = 93.75\% \)

Absence Percentage:

\( \text{Absence Percentage} = 100\% - 93.75\% = 6.25\% \)
