pick the model that represents the problem.
how many scheduled flights does skyler airport have?
scheduled flights

Explanation:

Step1: Define variable for total flights

Let $x$ = total scheduled flights.

Step2: Set up percentage equation

30% of $x$ equals 240:
$$0.30x = 240$$

Step3: Solve for $x$

Divide both sides by 0.30:
$$x = \frac{240}{0.30}$$

Answer:

800 scheduled flights

Additionally, the correct model is the second (purple) bar graph, where 30% corresponds to 240, and the total (100%) is the unknown value.
