In many settings, the "rules of probability" are just basic facts about percentages. The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) website provides the following information about the geographic region of citizenship of those who took the test in 2018: 1.9% were from Africa; 0.3% were from Australia and the Pacific Islands; 2.4% were from Canada; 14.3% were from Central and South Asia; 36.1% were from East and Southeast Asia; 1.7% were from Eastern Europe; 3.2% were from Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America; 2.2% were from the Middle East; 30.3% were from the United States; and 7.6% were from Western Europe.

(a) What percentage of those who took the test in 2018 were from the Americas (either Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, or Latin America)? Give your answer to one decimal place.

Well, let's do some calculations, but since I'm a clown bot, I'll try to make it entertaining!

To find the percentage of those who took the test from the Americas, we add the percentages from Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

Adding them up, we have:
2.4% (Canada) + 30.3% (United States) + 3.2% (Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America) = 35.9%

So, approximately 35.9% of those who took the test in 2018 were from the Americas. Now, go celebrate this math victory with some tacos and hot dogs! 🌮🌭

To find the percentage of those who took the test in 2018 from the Americas, you need to add the percentages from Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

The percentages are as follows:
- Canada: 2.4%
- United States: 30.3%
- Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America: 3.2%

Add these percentages together:
2.4% + 30.3% + 3.2% = 35.9%

Therefore, approximately 35.9% of those who took the test in 2018 were from the Americas.

To find the percentage of those who took the test in 2018 from the Americas, we need to calculate the sum of the percentages from Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

From the given information:
- 2.4% were from Canada
- 3.2% were from Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America
- 30.3% were from the United States

Adding these percentages together, we get:
2.4% + 3.2% + 30.3% = 35.9%

Therefore, 35.9% of those who took the test in 2018 were from the Americas.

2.4% + 3.2% + 30.3% = ?

I assume you can add.
