In a large city, commuter trains are used to transport people into the downtown area. Trains arrive many times a day to a downtown station. While most are on time, some are late. The table shows on-time data from the past week. Train Status On Time Late Total Day of the Week Monday 32 8 40 Tuesday 24 16 40 Wednesday 37 3 40 Thursday 29 11 40 Friday 30 20 50 Total 152 58 210 What percentage of trains were late in this particular week? Round the answer to four decimal places.
Divide the number of late trains by the total number of trains, then multiply by 100: (58 ÷ 210) × 100 ≈ 27.6190%. Rounded to four decimal places, about 27.6190% of the trains were late. This matches choice D, 27.6 percent.
