问题单项选择题

In 1995, approximately how many million people were on the Zone Diet

A．12

B．16

C．23

D．27

E．(E) 35

答案

参考答案：C

解析：To solve this problem, note that the Zone dieters make up 17% of the total percentage. You are given that there were 135 million dieters in 1995. At this point you could calculate 17% of 135 million, but it will be quicker to note that 20% of 135 million is 27 million, so 17% will be slightly less than 27 million. Only answer choice C works.
