Community B has the most children. There are 212.5 children which is greater than the 195 in Community A. However, since households cannot contain a fraction of a child, it is not possible to have 212.5 children in a community. Therefore, we can say that Community B has the most children with 125 children in 50 households. If there are 1,000 households in this community, we can estimate that there would be approximately 2,500 children in total.
