The following circle graph was published in the Cane County annual report. If there are 1,000 registered voters in Cane County, how many are 35–45 years old?
• The slice "35-45" is at 30%
• The slice "18-34" is at 15%
• The slice "Over 60" is at 25%
• The slice "46-60" is at 30%
• 150 voters
• 250 voters
• 300 voters
• 350 voters
To find out how many of the 1,000 registered voters in Cane County are 35-45 years old, we need to multiply the percentage of the "35-45" slice by 1000:
30% of 1000 = 0.3 x 1000 = 300
Therefore, there are 300 registered voters in Cane County who are 35-45 years old.
The answer is:
• 300 voters
To find out how many registered voters in Cane County are 35-45 years old, you can calculate the fraction of the whole pie chart that represents this age group and multiply it by the total number of registered voters (1,000).
Step 1: Calculate the fraction represented by the "35-45" slice:
30% = 30/100 = 0.30
Step 2: Multiply the fraction by the total number of registered voters:
0.30 x 1,000 = 300 voters
Therefore, there are 300 voters in the 35-45 age group in Cane County. So the correct answer is:
• 300 voters
To find the number of registered voters in Cane County who are 35-45 years old, we need to calculate 30% of the total number of registered voters (1,000).
To do this, multiply 1,000 by 0.30 (which is the decimal form of 30%).
1000 * 0.30 = 300
Therefore, there are 300 registered voters in Cane County who are 35-45 years old.
So the correct answer is: 300 voters.
