Question

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 14 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.(1 point)

Answer 1

To determine which vegetable was chosen by the greatest number of students, we need to compare the percentages provided. The percentages are as follows:

- Green beans: 0.35
- Broccoli: 0.2
- Peas: 14%
- Corn: 20%

Converting the percentages:

- Green beans: 0.35 * 100 = 35%
- Broccoli: 0.2 * 100 = 20%
- Peas: 14%
- Corn: 20%

Comparing the percentages, we can see that peas were chosen by the greatest number of students with a percentage of 14%. Therefore, the vegetable chosen by the greatest number of students is peas.

So the answer is 3.
