What percentage discussed the toxicity with a coworker?

• A. 58.2 Percent
• B. 2.2 Percent
• C. 43.9 Percent
• D. 15.4 Percent

Answer: (C)

Interpreting survey results involves matching the described action to the exact percentage shown for that action. For this question, the action is discussing the toxicity with a coworker, and the data indicate that 43.9 percent of respondents did so. That makes it the correct choice. The remaining percentages point to other reactions or groups (for instance, talking to someone else, not discussing at all, or discussing with a supervisor), so they don’t answer the question as asked. A helpful check is to confirm the denominator is the total respondents and that you’re looking at the correct category in the table or chart.
