Respuesta :

Answer:  The answer is 36%.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a police officer records the speeds of vehicles on a road as follows

speed(miles per hour)     36-40     41-45     46-50      51-55       56-60

No. of vehicles                    2             14          18              12            4  

Number of vehicles travelling at a speed of 46 to 50 miles per hour = 18

and total number of vehicles = 2 + 14 + 18 + 12 + 4 = 50.

Therefore, the percentage of the vehicles travelling at a speed of 46 to 50 miles per hour is given by

[tex]\dfrac{18}{50}\times 100\%=36\%.[/tex]

Thus, the answer is 36%.
