You can find this out by summing up the total number of accounts listed on the histogram (each represented by the height of a bar, value indicated on the vertical axis), finding the total number of accounts beneath the 500 value, and putting them in a fraction over the total number of accounts.

Alright, so you can approach this from two different ways, finding the account balances that are *below* $500, or finding the account balances that are *above* $500. How would you try to do either?
