Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is A because the total number of people who oppose the law is 85 + 45 + 60 = 190, and the total number of people surveyed is 50 + 93 + 35 + 85 + 45 + 60 + 5 + 7 + 20 = 400. Therefore, the percentage of people who oppose the law is 190 / 400 * 100 = 47.5%, which is closest to 48%.
