Five different sixth grade classes
took a mathematics test. The table shows the percentage of
students who passed the test in each class. In class A, the success rate was 55
percent; in class B, 65 percent; class C, 90 percent; class D, 80 percent; and class
E, 85 percent. Which class has the highest success
rate?
As we’re looking for the highest
success rate, we need to find the largest number or largest percentage. 90 percent is greater than 55, 65,
80, and 85 percent. This means that class C had the
highest success rate. If we did need to order the classes
from highest to lowest, we would have class C, class E, class D, class B, and then
class A.
