A baker is weighing the dough that will be used to make pastries. The line plot shows the weight of the dough for each pastry. 1/4, 3/8xxx, 1/2

How many pastries will be made from at least pound of dough?

A. 4

B,7

C,8

D,9

Total number of pastries that will be made from at least 3/8 pound of dough is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the line plot shows the weight of the dough for each pastry.

From the given box plot it is clear that,

Number of pastries with weight 1/4 pound = 4

Number of pastries with weight 3/8 pound = 3

Number of pastries with weight 1/2 pound = 5

We know that

We need to find the number of pastries that will be made from at least 3/8 pound of dough. It means the number of pastries whose weight is 3/8 or more than that.

N = Number of pastries with weight 3/8 pound + Number of pastries with weight 1/2 pound

N = 3 + 5

N = 8

Therefore, total number of pastries that will be made from at least 3/8 pound of dough is 8.
