Hi Sakine, let's look at these pie charts showing free time activities for teenagers and adults in Italy. We need to find which statement is NOT correct.
Data Analysis: Teenagers vs Adults
Let's check the first option. It says Italian teens spend most of their time surfing the Net. Looking at the teenager chart, forty-seven percent is the largest slice, which is indeed surfing the Net. So, option A is correct.
A) Italian teens spend most of their time by surfing the Net. (Correct)
Now let's examine option B. It says adults in Italy are more interested in doing sports than teens. In the chart, doing sports is labeled as doing exercises.
B) Adults in Italy are more interested in doing sports than teens.
Looking at the data, teenagers spend sixteen percent of their time doing exercises, while adults spend only ten percent. Since sixteen is greater than ten, teenagers are actually more interested in sports than adults.
| Activity | Teenagers | Adults |
|---|---|---|
| Doing exercises | 16% | 10% |
