Question

If the same rate found in the graph applies to a second group of 240 students surveyed, how many students would have chosen Action and Strategy as their favorite video games? A. 210 B. 80 C. 120 D. 90

Answer 1

From the graph, the ratio of each bar can be found using

$\begin{gathered} \frac{no\text{ of students in a particular}}{no\text{ of students}} \\ \end{gathered}$

The ratio for Action is therefore given as

$\frac{no\text{ of students in action}}{no\text{ students}}=\text{ }\frac{40}{45}$

Using the ratio to compare to the second group of 240 students surveyed yields

$\frac{40}{45}=\frac{x}{240}$$undefined$
