Since this is a question about percentages, assume that the total number of bias-motivated offenses in 1998 was 100, of which 16 were based on religion and 58 were based on race.
• If 8 of the religion-based offenses (50% of 16) were deleted, then there would have been 92 offenses in all, of which 58 were based on race.
\(\frac{58}{92}=0.6304=63.04\)%
• If 4 of the religion-based offenses (25% of 16) were deleted, then there would have been 96 offenses in all, of which 58 were based on race.
\(\frac{58}{96}=0.6041=60.41\)%
Only Choices C, D, and E lie between 60.41% and 63.04%.
Answer: C,D and E
