About what percent of all the cans sold contained tuna-flavored food?




15%

80%

30%

65%

Answer 1

here you have to compute the sum of heights of all bars

Answer 2

okay hold please

Answer 3

going from left to right I guess where the bar was.
35+62+45+80+39=261/5=52.2
I don't think I did that right because that's not an option

Answer 4

is the sum equal to 261 ?

Answer 5

yes, I just estimated the bar height

Answer 6

in that case the requested percentage, is:
\[\huge \% = \frac{{80}}{{261}} \times 100 = ...?\]

Answer 7

30.65 and where does the 80 come from?

Answer 8

since the height of the "tuna flavored" bar, is 80

Answer 9

I see of course, C 30%

Answer 10

yes! Correct!
