Use the table determine what percent of students prefer pizza for lunch.
Pizza 12 students
Burger 4 students
Hot dog 2 students
Taco 2 students
12/(12+4+2+2) = 12/20 = 0.60 = 60%
To determine what percent of students prefer pizza for lunch, you need to find the number of students who prefer pizza and then calculate the percentage by dividing that number by the total number of students and multiplying by 100.
In this case, the table shows that 12 students prefer pizza for lunch. Let's assume there are a total of 20 students in the group. To find the percentage of students who prefer pizza, you would calculate:
(12 students / 20 students) * 100 = 60%
Therefore, 60% of the students in this group prefer pizza for lunch.
