Question #N839

The table shows the number of students enrolled in each of four clubs at a high school. \begin{tabular}{c|c|c|c|c} & Math Club & Science Club & History Club & Art Club\hline Number of Students & 200 & 150 & 100 & 75 \end{tabular} What percentage of the students enrolled in the four clubs are enrolled in the Math Club?
A. 20%
B. 25%
C. 33.3%
D. 40%

Correct Answer is: D

The total number of students enrolled in the four clubs is 200 + 150 + 100 + 75 = 525. The fraction of students enrolled in the Math Club is 200/525, which simplifies to 8/21. To convert this fraction to a percentage, multiply by 100%, which gives 38.1%. Of the given choices, 40% is closest to 38.1%.
