Since the frequency distribution table does not show the total number of individuals in the sample, we cannot calculate a percentage. However, we can determine that out of the given data, a total of 69 individuals are included. And out of that, 10 live in the 925 area code, which represents (10/69) x 100 = 14.5% of the sample. Therefore, the best choice is C.
