An institute surveyed small business owners across a state that employed 50 or fewer employees. The purpose of the study was to gain insight on the current small business health-care environment. Small business owners were asked if they offered health-care plans to their employees and if so, what portion (%) of the employee monthly health-care premium the business paid. The accompanying frequency distribution was formed to summarize the portion of premium paid for 87

small businesses who offer health-care plans to employees. Complete parts (a) through (c).
