To determine which community has the most children and how many children live in each community if there are 1,000 households, we need to calculate the average number of children per household for both communities based on the data provided.
For Community A:
- From the table:
- 10 households: 26 children → Average = 26 / 10 = 2.6 children per household
- 20 households: 52 children → Average = 52 / 20 = 2.6 children per household
- 40 households: 104 children → Average = 104 / 40 = 2.6 children per household
- 75 households: 195 children → Average = 195 / 75 = 2.6 children per household
Thus, the average number of children per household in Community A is 2.6.
If there are 1,000 households in Community A, the total number of children would be:
- Total children = 1,000 households * 2.6 children/household = 2,600 children.
For Community B:
- From the table:
- 12 households: 30 children → Average = 30 / 12 = 2.5 children per household
- 24 households: 60 children → Average = 60 / 24 = 2.5 children per household
- 50 households: 125 children → Average = 125 / 50 = 2.5 children per household
- 85 households: 212.5 children → Average = 212.5 / 85 = 2.5 children per household
Thus, the average number of children per household in Community B is 2.5.
If there are 1,000 households in Community B, the total number of children would be:
- Total children = 1,000 households * 2.5 children/household = 2,500 children.
Conclusion: Community A has the most children. There would be 2,600 children in Community A if there are 1,000 households.
The correct response is: Community A has the most children. There are 2,600 children in this community if there are 1,000 households.
