if there are 60 sixth graders how many sixth graders owned cats
(there is a circle graph showing: Reptiles:5%, Birds:5%, Fish: 10%, Cats: 35%, and dogs: 45%)
5% reptiles = 30 sixth graders
5% birds = 30 sixth graders
10% fish = 60 sixth graders
35% cats = 210 sixth graders
45% dogs = 270 sixth graders
30+30+60+210+270 = 600
Answer is 600 sixth graders were surveyed.
0.35 * 60 = ?

To find out how many sixth graders owned cats, you need to determine the percentage of sixth graders represented by the "Cats" category in the circle graph. Once you have the percentage, you can calculate the number of sixth graders that owned cats.
First, add up the percentage values for the different animal categories in the circle graph: Reptiles (5%) + Birds (5%) + Fish (10%) + Cats (35%) + Dogs (45%) = 100%.
Next, identify the percentage value for the "Cats" category, which is 35%.
To find the number of sixth graders that owned cats, you can calculate 35% of the total number of sixth graders (60):
Number of sixth graders owning cats = 35% of 60
= (35/100) x 60
= 0.35 x 60
= 21
Therefore, there are approximately 21 sixth graders who owned cats.
