Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine the percentage of pizza products that contain less than 10 grams of fat, we look at the ogive and find the corresponding point on the y-axis (which represents cumulative percentage) for the 10-gram boundary. We see that the point is slightly above the 15% mark, and slightly below the 20% mark, so we can estimate that roughly 14% of pizza products contain less than 10 grams of fat. Therefore, the best choice is B.
