Explanation:

Step1: Identify the given percentage

We are given that about 62% of the senior - class have a driver's license.

Step2: Calculate the expected number of licensed seniors in 2025

The class of 2025 has 416 seniors. To find the number of seniors expected to have a driver's license, we use the formula: Number of licensed seniors = Percentage of licensed seniors×Total number of seniors.
The percentage 62% can be written as 0.62 in decimal form. So the number of licensed seniors = 0.62×416.
0.62×416 = 257.92.
Rounding to the nearest integer, we get 258.

Answer:

1. B. Each year, about 62% of the senior class have a driver's license.
2. 258
