Question

the bar graph shows the number of major storms, by month, that have made landfall in a region between 1851 and 2005. in 1905 alone, three major storms made landfall during the month of september. what fraction of all the 67 major storms that made landfall during september is this? of all the major storms that made landfall during the month of september from 1851 to 2005, of them occurred in september, 1905. (type a whole number or a simplified fraction.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the part and the whole

The part is the number of storms in September 1905 which is 3, and the whole is the total number of major - storms in September from 1851 to 2005 which is 67.

Step2: Write the fraction

The fraction is $\frac{3}{67}$. Since 3 and 67 are both prime numbers, the fraction $\frac{3}{67}$ is already in its simplest form.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{67}$
