Explanation of Solution

Given:

The data is given as,

USA Gold Medal Count
Year 1924 1928 1932 1936 1948 1952 1956 1960 1964 1968 1972
Number of Gold Medals 1 2 6 1 3 4 2 3 1 1 3
Number of Events 16 14 14 17 22 22 24 27 34 35 35
Year 1976 1980 1984 1988 1992 1994 1998 2002 2006 2010
Number of Gold Medals 3 6 4 2 5 6 6 10 9 ?
Number of Events 37 38 39 46 57 61 68 78 84 86

The formula to calculate the number of gold medals won each year as a percentage of the number of events is given as,

Formula=No.ofgoldmedalsNo.ofevents×100

Year Number of Gold Medals Number of Events Percentage of gold medals Round off
1924 1 16 =116×100=6.25 6
1928 2 14 =214×100=14.28 14

1948 3 22 =322×100=13.63 14
1952 4 22 =422×100=18.18 18
1956 2 24 =224×100=8.33 8
1960 3 27 =327×100=11.11 11
1964 1 34 =134×100=2.94 3
1968 1 35 =135×100=2.85 3
1972 3 35 =335×100=8.57 9
1976 3 37 =337×100=8.10 8
1980 6 38 =638×100=15.78 16
1984 4 39 =439×100=10.25 10
