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?
A pie chart is titled • 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%
A. 150 voters
B. 250 voters
C. 300 voters
D. 350 voters
The slice for 35-45 years old is 30%, which can be written as a fraction of 30/100. To find the number of registered voters who are 35-45 years old, we need to multiply this fraction by the total number of registered voters:
30/100 x 1000 = 300
Therefore, the answer is C. 300 voters.
Well, if the slice "35-45" represents 30% of the registered voters in Cane County, and there are 1,000 registered voters, then we can simply calculate 30% of 1,000.
But let me tell you a joke before giving you the answer:
Why don't scientists trust atoms?
Because they make up everything!
Alright, now back to the question. 30% of 1,000 is 300. So, the answer is C. 300 voters.
To find out how many voters are 35-45 years old, we need to calculate 30% of the total number of voters in Cane County.
First, find the number of voters represented by 1% of the pie chart:
1% of 1,000 registered voters = 1,000 * (1/100) = 10 voters
Next, find the number of voters in the 35-45 age group:
30% of 1,000 voters = 1,000 * (30/100) = 300 voters
Therefore, the answer is C. 300 voters.
To determine how many registered voters in Cane County are between 35-45 years old, we need to calculate the actual number of voters represented by the 30% slice in the pie chart.
Here's how you can do it:
1. Calculate 30% of the total number of registered voters.
30% of 1,000 voters = (30/100) * 1,000 = 0.3 * 1,000 = 300 voters
Therefore, the correct answer is C. 300 voters.
