Answer:

we can say college's claims are accurate

Explanation:

given data

average college claim = 18%

applicants = 5000

claim accurate = 885 applicants

solution

as we know college claim 18% so that will be

college claim = 18% of applicants

college claim = 18% × 5000

college claim = 900

and claim accurate is 885

so both value is approx similar approx 1.7% difference

so we can say college's claims are accurate
