Question

The chart below shows the rabbit and fox populations in Boxerville over the last year. Of the choices below, in which month were the populations of rabbits and foxes closest to being equal?

Answer 1

I'm not sure what the choices are, but August looks like it has the closest to being equal.

Answer 2

In August the populations of rabbits and foxes were closest to being equal.

Explanation:

The choices are not given, but looking at the chart below, it clearly shows that in August the population of fox was 700 and rabbit was 800. This is the closest relation between the two. Other months has more difference in the number of animals. Like in January, the difference is 1000-300 =700. In March the difference is 800-600=200. In July the difference is 900-600=300.

So, its only in August that the difference is 100 and both the population were closest to each other.
