Employees at a certain company were asked to choose which of four methods of training-visual, aural, print, and kinesthetic-to include in an upcoming training seminar. Each respondent to the survey chose from one to four of the methods. For each of the four methods, the chart shows the percentage of respondents who chose only that method. The chart also shows the percentage of respondents who chose exactly two of the methods, exactly three of the methods, and all four of the methods.
Select from the drop-down menus the options that create the statement that is most strongly supported by the information provided.

| Survey Context | Employees at a company were surveyed |
| Training Methods | Visual, aural, print, kinesthetic |
| Selection Method | Employees could pick from one to four methods |
| Chart Shows (singles) | % who chose only visual, only aural, only print, or only kinesthetic |
| Chart Shows (multiples) | % who chose exactly two, exactly three, or all four methods |
| Chart Slice | Percentage | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Visual only | 3.1% | Chose only visual method |
| Aural only | 7.1% | Chose only aural method |
| Kinesthetic only | 11.8% | Chose only kinesthetic method |
| Print only | 19.1% | Chose only print method |
| Exactly two | 14.9% | Chose exactly two of the four methods |
| Exactly three | 12.1% | Chose exactly three of the four methods |
| All four | 31.9% | Chose all four methods |
It must be the case that [BLANK 1: percentage range] of the employees chose the [BLANK 2: method] method.
What is needed: The minimum percentage of employees who chose a specific method, definitely—i.e., adding 'only' and 'all four' categories for each method.
It must be the case that more than 50 percent of the employees chose the [BLANK 2: method] method.
What is needed: Which method's minimum guaranteed percentage is above 50%.
By adding each method's 'only' percentage to the 'all four' percentage, we can determine the minimum percentage of employees who selected each method. Print is the only method with a sum above 50%, making both correct blanks: 'more than 50 percent' and 'Print'.
The blanks are dependent: the percentage range in Blank 1 dictates that only one method (Print) fits in Blank 2. Both are tied to the same underlying analysis.
