Which one student owns one-fourth of the CDs accounted for in Figure 2?

  • A. Abe
  • B. Ben
  • C. Carl
  • D. Dave

Correct Answer: B

To find which student owns one-fourth of all the CDs, first add all the CDs to find a total. Your work from the previous question will help! Abe = 2, Ben = 4, Carl = 5, Dave = 3, and Ed = 2, which yields a total of 16 CDs. of 16 is × 16 = = 4, so Ben is the student who has 4 CDs. The correct answer is (B).
