Answer: 1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of sandwich = 10\dfrac12\text{ feet}=\dfrac{21}{2}\text{ feet}

Total people = 14

If everyone gets a same sized piece , then length of each piece should be

\dfrac{\text{ Length of sandwich}}{\text{Total people}}

=\dfrac{\dfrac{21}{2}}{14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2\times14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{2\times2}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ feet}\\\\=1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Hence, length of each piece = 1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Box and whisker plots please help!

The correct answer is D. 100%
Each tick counts as 8 so the beginning of the plot would be at 28 which is only 2 from 30 and everything else is on the plot is greater than 30 so the answer would have to be D since 75% would be too little coverage of the plot
