Number of students who chose chicken burgers is the least. So it is represented by the shortest bar.
Number of students who chose chicken burgers = 20
10% of students = 20
1% of students = 20 ÷ 10 = 2
Percent of students who chose chicken burgers = 10%
Percent of students who chose hotdog burgers = 30%
Percent of students who chose chicken and hotdog burgers
= 10% + 30%
= 40%
Total number of students who chose chicken and hotdog burgers
= 40 x 2
= 80
Answer(s): 80
