<p>I often come across this option in the math portion, usually when there is a diagram given. Does anyone have a guesstimate as to when this answer is the correct answer to the question? 1/5 of the time, etc?</p>
<p>Almost never. It might maybe one a test, but it rarely ever is the answer. It’s a weed out question used to weed out kids who don’t know certain rules (particularly geometry theorems that involve the angles of a shape). You can almost always figure out the answer. It’s the ACT’s way of trying to get kids to solve a problem that requires a more in depth math knowledge.</p>
<p>let’s just say iv’e taken at least 15 tests and this has never been this answer. It may be rarely. </p>
<p>It happened to me once when I took the SAT in my senior year. The question was something like this, “A school has 2000 students. 60% of the students are female. 10% of the students in the school can speak Chinese. How many females in the school speak Chinese?”</p>
<p>Alright, thanks everyone!</p>
