c. 3%
d. I can conclude that poor nutrition affects academic performance because the chart shows that people with poor nutrition got the worst scores out of the people with better nutrition. The chart also shows that there are more kids below average than kids with excellent nutrition. Kids with poor nutrition also have less people above average then any other category.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the percentages, it is just a number out of the total, which is 1000.
Percentages are a number out of 100. Like, 35/100 is 35%. So the total is 1000 and if you divide it by 10, you'll get 100. That means you have to only divide the amount of kids in a category by 10, and you'll get the percentage.
Below average kids with poor nutrition has 70 kids.
70/1000. Divide 1000 by 10 to get 100. Since you divided the denominator, 1000, by 10, you need to do the same for the numerator, which is 70. 70 divided by 10 is 7, so it's 7%. It is sort of like a ratio!
Average kids with poor nutrition has 130 kids.
130/1000. Divide 1000 by 10 to get 100. Since you divided the denominator, 1000, by 10, you need to do the same for the numerator, which is 130. 130 divided by 10 is 13, so it's 13%.
Above average kids with poor nutrition has 30 kids.
30/1000. Divide 1000 by 10 to get 100. Since you divided the denominator, 1000, by 10, you need to do the same for the numerator, which is 30. 30 divided by 10 is 3, so it's 3%.
