Answer:
80%
Step-by-step explanation:
The data given in the histogram is:
Years of service : Number of Faculty Members
0 - 4.9 : 10
5 - 9.9 : 7
10 - 14.9 : 9
15 - 19.9 : 9
20 - 24.9 : 8
25 - 29.9 : 7
We need to find the percentage of faculty members which have more than 5 years of service.
Total number of faculty members = 10 + 7 + 9 + 9 + 8 + 7 = 50
Number of Faculty members with 5 or more years of service = 7 + 9 + 9 + 8 + 7 = 40
Percentage of department faculty having 5 or more years of service can be calculated as:
[tex]\frac{\text{Number of faculty members with 5 or more years of service}}{\text{Total Number of faculty members}} \times 100\% \\\\ = \frac{40}{50} \times 100\%\\\\ = 80\%[/tex]
This means, 80% of the department faculty have 5 or more years of service.
