Answer 1

8.5 percent of people between 35 and 54 prefer football.

Answer 2

Answer:

37%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 27 people between the age of 35 and 54. Of these people, 10 prefer football. To find the percentage, you divide the number of people in the age group who prefer football by the total number of people in the age group.

10/27 = .37037...

or 37.04%

Since it asks for the nearest whole number, 37% of people aged 35-54 prefer football.
