Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
shelter 1 had 4/18 black, around 17%
2 had around 60%
3 had exactly 60%
and 4 had 72%
Option D
Answer:
Shelter 4 has the highest percentage of black cats with 72%.
Solution:
Let us find the percentage of cats in each shelter of Marnie
Step 1:
4 of the 18 cats in Shelter 1 were black
This can be written as
[tex]\frac{4}{18}[/tex] = 0.22
Step 2:
13 of the 24 cats in Shelter 2 were black
[tex]\frac{13}{24}[/tex] = 0.54
Step 3:
12 of the 20 cats in Shelter 3 were black
[tex]\frac{12}{20}[/tex] = 0.60
Step 4:
18 of the 25 cats in Shelter 4 were black
[tex]\frac{18}{25}[/tex] = 0.72
Result:
Therefore we can conclude Shelter 4 has the highest percentage of black cats with 72%.
