Approximately what percent of the students in 2000 earned at least a 3.0 grade point average?
(A) 25%
(B) 50%
(C) 67%
(D) 80%
(E) 97.5%
Here,
Total no. of students in the year 2000 = 3000
We need to find the students, who scored 3.0 grade and above
therefore,From the graph
Students with 3.0 grade = 500
Students with 3.3 grade = 625
Students with 3.7 grade = 525
Students with 4.0 grade = 350
Total students with 3.0 and above grades = 500 + 625 + 525 + 350 = 2000
Therefore, percent of the students in 2000 earned at least a 3.0 grade = \(\frac{2000}{3000} *100\)
% = 67%
