Question

Use the table to answers questions 5 and 6. 5. You decide to display the information as a pie chart. What percent does the entire pie chart represent? * A. It depends on the problem the graph represents. B. 1% C. 100% D. 360% 6. Calculate the percent who selected Summer as their favorite season. Round to the nearest whole percent. * Reminder: Number who chose Summer divided by Total number who took the survey times 100 equals the percent who selected Summer on the survey When rounding, remember: If the number behind the decimal is 5 or greater, increase the ones place by 1. If the number behind the decimal is 4 or less, leave the ones place as is. A. 38.75862… which rounds to 38% B. 38.75862… which rounds to 39% C. 63.28828… which rounds to 63% D. 63.28828… which rounds to 64%

Answer 1

5. The correct answer is **C. 100%**. A pie chart represents a whole, which is 100% of the data being displayed.

6. To calculate the percentage of people who selected Summer as their favorite season, you can use the formula you've provided:

\[
\text{Percent who selected Summer} = \left( \frac{\text{Number who chose Summer}}{\text{Total number who took the survey}} \right) \times 100
\]

Let's say the number who chose Summer is 39 and the total number of respondents is 101. The calculation would be:

\[
\text{Percent who selected Summer} = \left( \frac{39}{101} \right) \times 100 \approx 38.61387
\]

Rounded to the nearest whole percent, this would be **39%**. So, the correct answer is **B. 38.75862… which rounds to 39%**.

Note: For a complete and accurate answer, the actual numbers from the table (which I do not have access to) would be necessary to perform the calculation correctly. Please replace the numbers in the example with the actual survey results you have.
