Maxwell sorts some marbles by color and creates a percent bar graph to describe the distribution of the data. He finds that 7 marbles are red. If there are 28 marbles in all, how far up will the bar for red go in his bar graph?(1 point)

Answer 1

The percent of red marbles can be found by dividing the number of red marbles by the total number of marbles and then multiplying by 100:

(7/28) * 100 = 25%

Therefore, the bar for red in Maxwell's bar graph would go up 25% of the total height.
