    Boys form approximately what percentage of the High Addition group? ​

    A.

    15%

    B.

    52%

    C.

    31%

    D.

    49%

    Correct option is B

    SOLUTION:
    calculating the percentage of boys in the High Addiction group, we need to first find the total number of students in this group.
    From the table, we can see that:
    Number of boys in the High Addiction group = 35 + 22 + 18 = 75
    Number of girls in the High Addiction group = 22 + 20 + 26 = 68
    Therefore, the total number of students in the High Addiction group = 75 + 68 = 143.
    Now, the percentage of boys in this group is:
    (Number of boys / Total number of students) × 100
    = (75 / 143) × 100
    = 52.44%
    So, approximately 52% of the High Addiction group are boys.
    Therefore, the answer is (b) 52%.
