Question

A recent article in Newsweek stated that 25 percent of students entering college read below the 10th grade level.

Is the above statement a fact or an opinion?

Answer 1

That is a fact

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is stated mathematically that 25 percent of students entering college read below the given grade level that is not an opinion, it is a stated fact. An opinion would be "many think that their students arent ready for the reading level required by colleges"
