Question

Use the image to answer the question.

A pie chart shows the following demographic distribution: White, 61; Hispanic, 16; Black non-Hispanic, 17; Asian-Pacific Islander, 5; and Indigenous American and Alaskan Natives, 1. Each segment of the pie chart shows a different pattern.

Interpret the data represented in the circle graph, which shows the average percentage breakdown of demographics in public schools in the United States. If a particular U.S. public school has 1,000 students in it, how many are expected to be Black, non-Hispanic?

To find the number of Black, non-Hispanic students in a public school with 1,000 students, we first need to calculate the percentage of Black, non-Hispanic students based on the pie chart data.

Black, non-Hispanic students make up 17% of the total demographic distribution.

Percentage of Black, non-Hispanic students:
17/100 * 1000 = 170

Therefore, in a public school with 1,000 students, we can expect 170 to be Black, non-Hispanic.

I got the answer by first finding the percentage of Black, non-Hispanic students in the demographic distribution provided in the pie chart.

The pie chart shows that Black, non-Hispanic students make up 17% of the total demographic distribution in public schools.

To find the number of Black, non-Hispanic students in a public school with 1,000 students, we then calculated 17% of 1,000 by multiplying 17/100 by 1,000.

This gave us the number 170, which represents the expected number of Black, non-Hispanic students in a public school with 1,000 students based on the demographic distribution shown in the pie chart.

Yes, I am confident in the calculation and the answer provided. Based on the information given in the pie chart, the percentage breakdown of demographics in public schools in the United States, and the total number of students in the specific public school (1,000 students), the calculation shows that there would be approximately 170 Black, non-Hispanic students in that particular public school.
