Show work please
I wanna understand how to get the answer

Answer 1

13-17 group is under 18
10% in decimal form is 0.1
If you have 1200 people, then you can multiply 1200 by 0.1 to get the answer.

Answer 2

What I did was 1200x7 which came out to be 84 to see if I did it correct I took 1200x each percent number then I took all the totals and added them together which came out to be 1200 I hope I did it right and that it helps.
