Answer 1

To determine how many people completed graduate school, we can use the percentage given in the table.

According to the table, 25% of the surveyed employees completed graduate school.

Now, we need to calculate 25% of 260 people:

\[
\text{Number of people who completed graduate school} = \frac{25}{100} \times 260 = 0.25 \times 260 = 65
\]

Therefore, 65 people completed graduate school. The correct answer is:

**65**
