Question

If you were to sketch a circle graph for the data shown in the table below, about what fraction of the circle would represent dogs?

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

To find the fraction of how many would choose dogs, we would have to add all of it together to find the sample size, then divide the number of people who would choose dogs to find the percentage of people who would represent dogs.

Using that percentage, we can then find the fraction close to it.

Let's find the sample size, 43+35+62=140

People who choose dogs: 35

Let's divide to find the fraction:
`(35)/(140) =(1)/(4)`

(we can simplify this fraction by seeing that four '35's fit into 140.
