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.
