I can see that you have provided a bar graph showing the number of adults with different numbers of children. Let's answer the two questions.

### 1. How many adults were questioned?
To find the total number of adults, we need to sum the values for each bar representing the number of adults for each number of children.

- **0 children**: 4 adults
- **1 child**: 5 adults
- **2 children**: 5 adults
- **3 children**: 1 adult
- **4 children**: 1 adult
- **5 children**: 3 adults

Total adults questioned = \( 4 + 5 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 19 \)

Thus, **19 adults** were questioned.

### 2. What percentage of the adults questioned had 5 children?
The number of adults with 5 children is 3. To find the percentage:

\[
\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{3}{19} \right) \times 100 = 15.8\%
\]

So, **15.8%** of the adults had 5 children.

Here are 5 related questions:
1. What percentage of adults had fewer than 2 children?
2. What is the mode of the number of children per family?
3. What is the average (mean) number of children per family?
4. How many adults had 3 or more children?
5. What is the median number of children?

**Tip**: When working with percentages, ensure you carefully count the totals before calculating percentages to avoid errors.

A group of adults were asked how many children they have in their families. How many adults were questioned? What percentage of the adults questioned had 5 children? Round to 1 decimal place.

Find out how many adults were questioned in a survey about family size and calculate the percentage of adults with 5 children. This problem covers basic arithmetic and percentage calculation, ideal for students in Grades 5-6.
