B) 30%
C) 36%
D) 40%
E) 50%

Answer 1

The percentage of intermediate runs at the ski resort is approximately 36%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of ski runs that are rated intermediate, we need to divide the number of intermediate runs by the total number of runs and multiply by 100.

Percentage of intermediate runs = (Number of intermediate runs / Total number of runs) x 100

Percentage of intermediate runs = (44 / 121) x 100 = 36.36

Therefore, approximately 36% of the runs are intermediate.
