A pie chart divided into 6 inequal sections is titled Transportation to School. The sections are labeled walk, 10; car, 12; bike, 2; train, 3; taxi, 4; and bus.
A total of 36 students were surveyed to determine the mode of transportation that they use to travel to school. What percentage of students walk to school? Round the percentage to the tenth.
To find the percentage of students who walk to school, we first need to determine the total number of students who walk. From the pie chart, we can see that 10 students walk to school.
To find the percentage of students who walk, we use the following formula:
Percentage = (Number of students who walk / Total number of students) * 100
Percentage = (10 / 36) * 100 = 27.8%
Therefore, approximately 27.8% of students walk to school.

A total of 36 students were surveyed to determine the mode of transportation that they use to travel to school. What percentage of students take a car to school? Round the percentage to the tenth.
To find the percentage of students who take a car to school, we look at the chart where it states that 12 students use a car as their mode of transportation.
To find the percentage, we use the formula:
Percentage = (Number of students who take car / Total number of students surveyed) * 100
Percentage = (12 / 36) * 100 = 33.3%
Therefore, approximately 33.3% of the students take a car to school.
