Question

The following bar chart shows the number of different types of animals at two county fairs. Fair X had a total of 645 animals, and fair Y had a total of 590 animals.

Answer 1

Answer: e. The percentage of all animals at fair Y that are goats is greater than the percentage of all animals at fair X that are goats.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both fairs have the same number of goats but the percentage of animals that are goats in fair Y will be greater than the percentage of animals that are goats in fair X because X has more animals in total so as a percentage, the goats will be smaller.

In Fair Y, the percentage of animals that are goats is;

= 100/590

= 16.9%

In Fair X that percentage is;

= 100/645

= 15.5%
