Official Solution:
Drop-down 1:
From the graph, we need the smallest ratio of deaths by drowning to all deaths for a given vessel type. So for each vessel type, compare the blue bar to the total of the blue and orange bars. This ratio is smallest for Personal Watercraft users.
Drop-down 2:
For Personal Watercraft users, the blue and orange bars together total about 50 deaths, and the total number of casualties is about 500. Thus, the probability that a boating casualty resulted in death was approximately
\(\frac{50}{500}=0.1\)
So about 1 in 10 boating casualties involving Personal Watercraft users resulted in death.
Correct answer:
Dropdown 1: "Personal Watercraft "
Dropdown 2: "10"
