There are 3 times as many participants in the 60–79 age group than in the 20–39 age group.

Answer 2

When you look at the bar graph and go over each of the answers, which one do you think it is?

Answer 3

It seems like its B...but I need confirmation

Answer 4

Well if you were to combine the 40-59 60-79 age groups, they would be the same as the 20-39

Answer 5

Your answer would be C because the age group 0-19 has 40 people, and 60-79 age group has 20, so there is 2x more in the 0-19 age group
