Math Problem Statement
Solution
To solve the two questions based on the provided histogram:
1. How many adults were questioned?
To find this, we need to add the number of adults for each category of "Number of Children" from the histogram.
- For 0 children: 5 adults
- For 1 child: 8 adults
- For 2 children: 4 adults
- For 3 children: 2 adults
- For 4 children: 1 adult
- For 5 children: 1 adult
Total number of adults = 5 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 21 adults
2. What percentage of the adults questioned had 2 children?
From the histogram, 4 adults have 2 children, and the total number of adults questioned is 21.
To calculate the percentage:
Final answers:
- Number of adults questioned: 21 adults
- Percentage of adults with 2 children: 19.05%
