Asoda company produces about 500 cans of soda every day. each can is supposed to contain 12 ounces. the actual volumes of 20 cans are randomly checked for accuracy. shown in the graph are the volumes of the cans checked during one day. which statement is best supported by the information in the graph?

The answer is "It is likely that 225 of the total cans produced that day had fewer than 12 ounces of soda."

Only 2 out of the 20 cans had exactly 12 ounces of soda. 2/20 = 0.1 = 10%. So you would only expect 10% of the 500 cans of soda to be exactly 12 ounces. This crosses out the first option.

9 out of 20 cans had more than 12 ounces of soda. 9/20 = 0.45 = 45%. This crosses out the second option, 45% of the cans produced that day had more than 12 ounces, not 50%. 45% of 500 is 225, so it is likely that 225 of the total cans produced that day had more than 12 ounces of soda. This crosses out the last option.

9 out of 20 cans had less than 12 ounces of soda. 9/20 = 0.45 = 45%. 45% of 500 is 225, so option C is correct, 225 of the total cans produced that day most likely had fewer than 12 ounces of soda in them.

The answer is b) 32 your welcome
