Answer 1

Answer:

58.33333%

Step-by-step explanation:

                                 Exam ≥ 80%          Exam < 80%

Studied 4+ hours         18                                6

Studied < 4 hours         10                               14

The number of students who took the exam is 18+10+6+14 =48

The number of students who got an 80 or above is 18+10 = 28

The percent with 80 or above is  80 or above over total

28/48
