Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of student with cell phones = 792

Required

Percentage of students with cell phone

To calculate the percentage of students with cell phone, we take a ratio of the number of students with cell phone to the sample size.

Mathematically, this is represented as

[tex]Percentage = \frac{Students-with-cell-phone}{Sample Size}[/tex]

By Substitution,

[tex]Percentage = \frac{792}{1220}[/tex]

[tex]Percentage = 0.64918032786[/tex]

[tex]Percentage = 64.918032786[/tex]%

[tex]Percentage = 64.92[/tex]% Approximated to nearest hundredth

Hence, the percentage of students with cell phone is 64.92%
