To find the percentage of cars that are labeled "White," we first need to calculate the total number of cars.

Add up the values:

  • Red: 85
  • Black: 104
  • Blue: 35
  • White: 88
  • Other: 48

Total = 85 + 104 + 35 + 88 + 48 = 360

Next, we find the percentage of cars that are White:

Percentage of White = (Number of White Cars / Total Number of Cars) × 100

Percentage of White = (88 / 360) × 100 ≈ 24.44%

Rounding to the nearest percent gives us approximately 24%.

Therefore, the percentage of cars that would be labeled "White" in the pie chart is 24%.
