Use the image to answer the question.
A pie chart shows the age distribution in the United States in year 2020 as follows: 0 to 14 years, 18; 15 to 64 years, 65; and 65 plus, 17. Each segment of the pie chart shows a different pattern.
Determine what percentage of all Americans are younger than 65 years old.
(1 point)
The percentage of all Americans who are younger than 65 years old can be calculated by adding the percentage of Americans in the 0 to 14 years segment and the 15 to 64 years segment.
Percentage of Americans 0 to 14 years old = (18/100) x 100 = 18%
Percentage of Americans 15 to 64 years old = (65/100) x 100 = 65%
Total percentage of Americans younger than 65 years old = 18% + 65% = 83%
Therefore, 83% of all Americans are younger than 65 years old.
how did u get thus answer
To determine the percentage of all Americans who are younger than 65 years old, we need to add the percentages of Americans in the age groups 0 to 14 years old and 15 to 64 years old, as they both represent the age group younger than 65 years old.
From the given information in the pie chart:
- The percentage of Americans in the age group 0 to 14 years old is 18%.
- The percentage of Americans in the age group 15 to 64 years old is 65%.
Adding these two percentages gives us:
18% (0 to 14 years) + 65% (15 to 64 years) = 83%
Therefore, 83% of all Americans are younger than 65 years old based on the age distribution provided in the pie chart.
are u sure
Let me recalculate to double-check:
Percentage of Americans aged 0 to 14 years: 18%
Percentage of Americans aged 15 to 64 years: 65%
Adding these two percentages together:
18% + 65% = 83%
Therefore, 83% of all Americans are younger than 65 years old based on the age distribution provided in the pie chart. This calculation is correct.
100% sure?
Let's double-check the calculation:
Percentage of Americans aged 0 to 14 years: 18%
Percentage of Americans aged 15 to 64 years: 65%
Adding these two percentages together:
18% + 65% = 83%
Yes, I am 100% sure that 83% of all Americans are younger than 65 years old based on the age distribution provided in the pie chart.
