Well, all together 90 people participated. Correct? And because 50 people chose dogs at 50x2 is 100, it is not A.

anonymous · Answer

It is not B because dogs were the most popular

It will either be C or D. Which do you think just by looking at the graph?

IDK but I need someone to really help me. do you know any people who can? @MidnightFalls ?

anonymous · Answer

I'm pretty sure it'll be C, as the data is not even (just by looking at the graph I got that.. hope I'm right)

rainbow_rocks03 · Answer

you were wrong @MidnightFalls the correct answer was A

Thx for trying to help though

anonymous · Answer

Sorry, then it would've been D. I guess its all about the wording. I mean, the data people gave were not even but I guess she asked the same question to everyone so maybe that justified it as being evenly distributed.
