The data from two samples of 100 students regarding what pet they own is given below.
Sample 1: 54 38 8 100
Sample 2: 39 49 12 100
Based on the two samples, what percentage of students own a bird as a pet?
(1 point)
______%
To find the percentage of students who own a bird as a pet in the two samples, we first need to add up the number of students who own a bird in each sample.
In Sample 1, we see that 8 students own a bird.
In Sample 2, we see that 12 students own a bird.
Adding these together, we have a total of 8 + 12 = 20 students who own a bird.
Now, to find the percentage of students who own a bird out of the total number of students in both samples (200 students), we can use the formula:
(20/200) x 100 = 10%
Therefore, 10% of students in the two samples own a bird as a pet.
