A. line graph
B. bar graph
C. histogram
D. circle graph

Answer 1

Explanation:

D. circle graph (also known as a pie chart) would be the best type of graph for Zach to use to display the percentage of his classmates who prefer each sport. A circle graph can easily show how a whole group (in this case, Zach's classmates) is divided into parts (the percentage of students who prefer each sport).
