Answer

$313,767$ students had a score of 16 or below. $313,767$ students had a score of 25 or above.

Work Step by Step

According to (a): about 20% of students had a composite score of 16 or below. So: 20% of 1,568,835 is: $0.20\times1,568,835=313,767$ First, let's find the percentage of students who had a composite score less than 25. It is height of the point above the 25, about 80%. The students who had a composite score of 25 or above are those who did not have a composite score less than 25. So: 100% −80% =20%. Now, 20% of 1,568,835 is: $0.20\times1,568,835=313,767$
