Answer:

Start with the flashlight parallel to the wall. If you incline it slightly away from the wall, the (conical) beam will still hit the wall and you'll get a hyperbola.

allochka39001 [22]
Divide the amount of teenagers that smoked by the total population:

368 \div 4310 = 0.0853

Multiply this decimal by 100 to convert into a percentage:

0.0853 \times 100 = 8.53

To round to the nearest decimal place, look at the hundredths value:

8.53
3 > 5
8.53 -> 8.5

8.5% of teenagers reported that they smoked at least one cigarette.
