Julia did a survey in four butterfly parks and wrote the following observations:
Butterfly Park Survey
Park Number of Blue Butterflies Total Number of Butterflies
P 21 82
Q 40 86
R 11 63
S 38 58
Based on the survey, which park had the greatest percentage of blue butterflies? (5 points)
Park P
Park Q
Park R
Park S
To determine which park had the greatest percentage of blue butterflies, we can calculate the percentage of blue butterflies for each park by dividing the number of blue butterflies by the total number of butterflies and multiplying by 100.
For Park P, the percentage of blue butterflies is (21/82) x 100 = 25.61%.
For Park Q, the percentage of blue butterflies is (40/86) x 100 = 46.51%.
For Park R, the percentage of blue butterflies is (11/63) x 100 = 17.46%.
For Park S, the percentage of blue butterflies is (38/58) x 100 = 65.52%.
Therefore, Park S had the greatest percentage of blue butterflies.
