SOLUTION:

Case: Interpreting from tables

The total number of pets is 20

Checking the options

Option A.

One-fourth of the pets are cats


(1)/(4)*20=5\text{ }pets

This is TRUE from the table

Option B

Snakes represent 10% of the pets on the farm


\begin{gathered} 10\%*20 \\ (10)/(100)*20=2\text{ }pets \end{gathered}

This is FALSE from tables as there is only 1 snake

Option C

The number of biirds and snakes on the farm make up 20%


\begin{gathered} 20\%*20 \\ (20)/(100)*20=4\text{ }pets \end{gathered}

This is TRUE from the table

Option D

More than half of the pets on the farm are dogs


(1)/(2)*20=10\text{ }pets

This is TRUE from the table
