Question

Answer the questions using what you have learned in the text as well as the table showing literacy rates and GDP data for the select Latin American countries.

Which statement is NOT true of the information shown in the table?

all of these countries have high literacy rates
Brazil and Mexico have the highest HCI percentages
Cuba has the highest literacy rate
El Salvador has the lowest GDP per capita

Answer 1

I don’t have the table or text you mention, so I can’t check the numbers. Please either paste the table here or give the literacy rates, HCI percentages, and GDP per capita for the countries.

If you want to check yourself, here’s how to decide which statement is NOT true:

- “All of these countries have high literacy rates” — verify each country’s literacy rate. If every rate is high (e.g., ≥90% or whatever threshold your text uses), the statement is true; otherwise it is false.
- “Brazil and Mexico have the highest HCI percentages” — compare the HCI values for all countries; if Brazil and Mexico are not the top two, the statement is false.
- “Cuba has the highest literacy rate” — check that Cuba’s literacy rate is the largest of the group.
- “El Salvador has the lowest GDP per capita” — compare GDP per capita for all countries; if El Salvador is not the smallest, the statement is false.

Send the table (or the numbers) and I’ll identify which statement is NOT true.
