That's what I think.

it is one third .

what are the other answers

sorry just seeing this but here are the answers!

1. D
2. C
3. B

To determine the answer to this question, we need to know the total population of Canada and the population of the southern lowlands in Ontario. Once we have this information, we can calculate the percentage and compare it to the given options.

The most recent total population of Canada can be obtained from various sources, such as the World Bank, the United Nations, or the Canadian government. Let's assume for the purpose of this explanation that Canada's total population is 40 million people.

Next, we need to find the population of the southern lowlands in Ontario. To do this, we can refer to reliable sources such as the Canadian census or official provincial statistics. For the example, let's assume that the population of the southern lowlands in Ontario is 10 million people.

Now, we can calculate the percentage of Canada's population living in the southern lowlands on Ontario by dividing the population of the southern lowlands by the total population of Canada and multiplying by 100:

(10 million / 40 million) * 100 = 25%

Therefore, approximately 25% of Canada's entire population lives in the southern lowlands on Ontario.

Comparing this result to the given options:
(A) one-twelfth (approx. 8.33%),
(B) one-eighth (approx. 12.5%),
(C) one-third (approx. 33.33%),
(D) one-half (approx. 50%),

We can see that the answer is closer to option (C) one-third, but not exactly the same. So, in this case, the closest option would be (C) one-third.
