Question

 The figure below shows a dotplot generated by Minitab for the number of licensed drivers per 1000 residents by state, including the District of Columbia (Source: U.S. Department of Transportation).

(b) About what percentage of the states (out of 51) seem to have close to 800 licensed drivers per 1000 residents? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Another display technique that is somewhat similar to a histogram is a dotplot. In a dotplot, the data values are displayed along the horizontal axis. A dot is then plotted over each data
value in the data set. For more details, view How to Make a Dotplot. The figure below shows a dotplot generated by Minitab for the number of licensed drivers per 1000 residents by state,
including the District of Columbia (Source: U.S. Department of Transportation).
