a group of students was surveyed about their favorite vegetable green beans were chosen by 0.35 of the students, broccoli was chosen by 0.2 of the students, peas were chosen by 1/4 of the students, and corn was chosen by 20% of the students. Which vegetable was chosen by the greatest number of students? in your response enter 1 for green beans, 2 for broccoli, 3 for peas, or 4 for corn.

To determine which vegetable was chosen by the greatest number of students, we need to compare the proportions of students who chose each vegetable.

The proportion of students who chose green beans is 0.35
The proportion of students who chose broccoli is 0.2
The proportion of students who chose peas is 1/4 or 0.25
The proportion of students who chose corn is 20% or 0.2

Comparing these proportions, we see that green beans were chosen by the greatest number of students (0.35). Therefore, the correct response is __3__ (1 for green beans, 2 for broccoli, 3 for peas, or 4 for corn).

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Yes, you are correct. Green beans were chosen by the greatest number of students (0.35). The correct response is 1 for green beans.
