If you would like the possibility of partial credit, show the work on your scrap sheet in getting fraction values for proportions.  If you just answer with decimals, it is all or nothing.  Shows signs of joint deterioration No signs of joint deterioration Under 50 pounds 85 131 50 pounds or over 78 62 Blank 1)  How many dogs were studied in total?
