Part II: Analysis of Exam Areas
C is the correct answer. To understand this question, you must be able to read the
bar graph and make comparisons. Notice that the graph shows the “Number of
Delegates Committed to Each Candidate,” with the number of delegates given
along the bottom of the graph in increments of 200. The candidates are listed
along the left side. Candidate 1 has a few more than approximately 800 delegates.
The bar graph for Candidate 2 stops about three quarters of the way between 400
and 600. Halfway between 400 and 600 is 500, so Candidate 2 has about 550
delegates.
800 − 550 = 250
