To determine the correct option that lists three Spanish-speaking communities in New York City ordered from the smallest to the largest, we need to consider the population sizes of each community. Here are the options provided:
Option 1: Cubans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans
Option 2: Puerto Ricans, Dominican, Cubans
Option 3: Dominicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans
To find the correct answer, we can refer to recent demographic data or estimate the relative sizes of these communities based on previous knowledge. In this case, the largest Spanish-speaking community in New York City is generally considered to be the Puerto Rican community.
Considering this information, we can see that in option 1, the Puerto Rican community is listed last, while in option 2, it is listed first. Therefore, option 2 cannot be the correct answer.
Now, we can compare options 1 and 3. In both options, the Puerto Rican community is listed last, which matches our understanding of its size. However, the difference lies in the order of the Cuban and Dominican communities. Here, option 3 lists the Dominican community first and the Cuban community second.
Based on the population statistics, the correct answer would be option 3: Dominicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans.
