Part 1:
The percent increase in the number of cases of the disease from Y9 to Y12 was, to the nearest 10%, _________.
Solution:
For Y9, the number of cases if 200,000 and for Y12 the number of cases is 600,000. To calculate the percent increase in the number of cases:
Increase = 600,000 - 200,000 = 400,000.
% Increase = ( 400,000 / 200,000 ) * 100 = ( 4 / 2 ) * 100 = 200 %
Part 2:
The average (arithmetic mean) of the numbers of countries with local cases from Y1 to Y5 was, to the nearest 5 countries, _________.
Solution:
Y1 - 51 countries
Y2 - 50 countries
Y3 - 39 countries
Y4 - 40 countries
Y5 - 55 countries
Mean = ( 51 + 50 + 39 + 40 + 55 ) / 5 = 235 / 5 = 47.
Closest option choice nearest to 5 is 45.

Part 2: 45 countries
The percent increase in the number of cases of the disease from Y9 to Y12 was, to the nearest 10%, _________.
Solution:
For Y9, the number of cases if 200,000 and for Y12 the number of cases is 600,000. To calculate the percent increase in the number of cases:
Increase = 600,000 - 200,000 = 400,000.
% Increase = ( 400,000 / 200,000 ) * 100 = ( 4 / 2 ) * 100 = 200 %
Part 2:
The average (arithmetic mean) of the numbers of countries with local cases from Y1 to Y5 was, to the nearest 5 countries, _________.
Solution:
Y1 - 51 countries
Y2 - 50 countries
Y3 - 39 countries
Y4 - 40 countries
Y5 - 55 countries
Mean = ( 51 + 50 + 39 + 40 + 55 ) / 5 = 235 / 5 = 47.
Closest option choice nearest to 5 is 45.
Part 1: 200 %
