To analyze the data from the table:
- Total number of children who like pineapple: 6
- Total number of adults who like pineapple: 25
- Total number of children who do not like pineapple: 14
- Total number of adults who do not like pineapple: 8
Now, let's summarize the overall responses:
1. Total children: 20 (6 who like pineapple + 14 who do not)
2. Total adults: 33 (25 who like pineapple + 8 who do not)
Next, we can evaluate the statements:
1. **More children were asked the question than adults**: This is false. There are 20 children and 33 adults.
2. **More children responded positively than adults**: This is false. 6 children liked pineapple compared to 25 adults.
3. **More adults responded positively than children**: This is true. 25 adults liked pineapple compared to 6 children.
4. **More people overall responded negatively**: Let's calculate the negative responses:
- Total negative responses: 14 children + 8 adults = 22 negative responses.
- Total positive responses: 6 children + 25 adults = 31 positive responses.
Hence, this statement is false.
Thus, the correct statement is:
**More adults responded positively than children.**
- Total number of children who like pineapple: 6
- Total number of adults who like pineapple: 25
- Total number of children who do not like pineapple: 14
- Total number of adults who do not like pineapple: 8
Now, let's summarize the overall responses:
1. Total children: 20 (6 who like pineapple + 14 who do not)
2. Total adults: 33 (25 who like pineapple + 8 who do not)
Next, we can evaluate the statements:
1. **More children were asked the question than adults**: This is false. There are 20 children and 33 adults.
2. **More children responded positively than adults**: This is false. 6 children liked pineapple compared to 25 adults.
3. **More adults responded positively than children**: This is true. 25 adults liked pineapple compared to 6 children.
4. **More people overall responded negatively**: Let's calculate the negative responses:
- Total negative responses: 14 children + 8 adults = 22 negative responses.
- Total positive responses: 6 children + 25 adults = 31 positive responses.
Hence, this statement is false.
Thus, the correct statement is:
**More adults responded positively than children.**
