Answer: The only correct option is the first one (top left)
Step-by-step explanation:
let's take each conclussion and see if it is true or not.
a) the number of students that live more than a mile away from school is 42
Of those, 32 ride a bike to reach the school.
The proportion is p = (32/42)*100% = 76.19%
We can round it to the whole number, and have P = 76%
then this statement is true.
b) The number of students that ride a bike is 59, the number of students that live less than a mile away and ride bike is 27, the percentage is:
p = (27/59)*100% = 45.7%
this statement is false.
c) Again, 59 students ride a bike, 32 of them live more than a mile away, the percentage here is:
p = (32/59)*100% = 54.23%
this statement is false.
d) We already find that from the students that live more than a mile away, a 76% ride a bike, so this statement is also false.
