Answer: 2.87% students graduated with a proffesional degree

In order to find 2.87%, you must find the total amount of students whom earned a proffesional degree in 2009. The graph states there were 92 students whom graduated with a professional degree. Next you must find the total amount of students whom graduated with degrees. The graph states there were 3,204 students whom graduated with a degree.

To find the percentage you must divide 3,204 from 92. Your answer would look like this: 0.0287141074. Move the decimal back 2 times to get 2.87%.
