<span>16.45 is less than 16.454. The reason is because 16.454 is 4 thousandths more than 16.45 assuming that both numbers are exact numbers. Although it is only a small amount it still makes 16.45 less than 16.454.</span>
First we need to find how much the annual global seafood consumption (agsc) rose, which is 16 pounds
now, we find how much percent of 22 is 16. we put it through a calculator and, rounded to the nearest tenth, get 72.7%
so, the percent increase is 72.7%
Answer:

So then the best option is:
a. 7.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".
The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"
If we assume that we have
groups and on each group from
we have
individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:
And we have this property

Where SST represent the total sum of squares.
The degrees of freedom for the numerator on this case is given by
where k =3 represent the number of groups.
The degrees of freedom for the denominator on this case is given by
.
And the total degrees of freedom would be
From the info given we know that
And
From definition the F statisitc is defined as:

So then the best option is:
a. 7.32
