Read the passage and examine the chart. Local high school students were surveyed on what classes they would like to see offered
on campus. Fifteen percent of the students surveyed wanted to see more domestic science classes, while 25 percent wanted to take a trade class. Sixty percent of students reported that they would like to take a digital media class. Which statement best compares the two formats? The text would be less appealing to auditory learners than the chart. The audience would not be able to understand the chart without the text. The chart provides the data from the survey visually, and the text describes it. The chart is more reliable than the information found in the text.
C). The chart provides the data from the survey visually, and the text describes it.
Explanation:
The third statement most aptly compares the two distinct formats of representing information. The chart offers a visual representation of the data that assists the audience to have better clarity of the data and understand it effectively. It also aids them in memorizing or retaining the information more conveniently. The passage, on the other hand, aims to describe the visual information in words that helps the readers to understand the overall idea and conclusion represented by the data. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
