Moving to another question will save this response. Gaestin 16 of 195) Question 16 1 points Save Papa Johns conducted a survey of 100 nursing students taking statistics to determine what toppings they preferred on their pizza. Data handlers converted students' responses into a pie (no pun intended) chart to display the results clearly to upper management. Did the data handlers do a good job in constructing a quality statistical picture? Examine the statistical picture below and if you see a feature that is problematic (e.g., inaccurate or misleading), place your cursor over that feature and click. If you change your mind, click on the clear button on the bottom left and you can begin again. If you decide the statistical picture contains no problematic features, click just above the word "cheese."

Explanation / Answer

Yes, the data handlers did a good job in constructing a quality statistical picture i.e. pie chart, to display the result of the survey clearly to the upper management. Since pie chart presents data as a simple and easy-to-understand picture.It represents data visually as a fractional part of a whole. Readers or audiences see a data comparison at a glance, enabling them to make an immediate analysis or to understand information quickly. This type of data visualization chart removes the need for readers to examine or measure underlying numbers themselves.

So here in above problem just by looking at the pie chart the upper management would understand or get a clear insight that what percent of people preferred what kind of toppings on their pizza.As there are total 100 nursing students were surveyed one can clearly understand that 30% of the total surveyed students preferred tomatoes toppings on their pizza and so on.

The statistical picture contains no problematic features as the sum of all the different sectors of the pie chart representing the percentage of surveyed students (who likes particular pizza toppings) adds up to the total of 100%.So it clearly represents that 30% of total surveyed students prefer tomatoes toppings on their pizza,20% prefer mushroom toppings,10% prefer olives toppings,25% prefer cheese toppings and 15% prefer pepperoni toppings.

Total surveyed students=100

From the pie chart,

30% of total surveyed students prefer tomatoes toppings=30% of 100=(30/100)*100=30,i.e 30 students prefer tomatoes toppings and similarly for other cases.

so we have to click just above the word cheese.
