Before an election: 23% said they would vote for A, 9% said they would vote for B, 20% said they would not vote. these all voted
elena55 [62]
It would be B because if the total population was 100 people then 23 would vote for A, and 9 would vote for B. Then, 20 people would not vote. The total number of people now is 52, so there are 48 more people left to vote and at a 1:2 ratio it would be 16:32. If you add 16 to the original 23 for A, that would equal 39 total votes for A. If you add the 32 to the original 9 for B, that would equal 41 for B. And then 20 are left over for the non-voters. Therefore, B has the most votes.

Vlada [557]
<span>An upper quartile is the range of numbers above the median in a set. Thus, the numbers have to be rearranged mentally or on paper. Fortunately, there are an odd set of numbers, so one number, 25, is the median. The upper quartile is 30, 35, 40, 45.</span>
