After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.

Since the fall of 2012, public schools have had to meet new nutrition standards (which included offering more fruits and vegetables) for their lunches. In 2013, the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) reviewed data from the 2005 School Nutrition and Dietary Assessment to investigate whether students in schools that were already following the new standards (school group A) ate more fruits and vegetables than students in schools that were not following the new standards (school group B).

You will be presented with some of the overall findings of the review and will then be asked questions related to these conclusions.


Finding #3: Of all of the schools surveyed in 2005,
75% offered lunches that met new weekly standards for amounts of dark, green leafy vegetables.
85% offered lunches that met new weekly standards for amounts for red/orange vegetables.
21% offered lunches that met new weekly standards for legumes (such as beans).
97% offered lunches that met new weekly standards for amounts for "other" vegetables.
This suggests that
◦ about 25% of schools need to serve more citrus fruits.
◦ only 15% of schools need to serve more green vegetables.
◦ a majority of schools are offering adequate servings of grains.
◦ a majority of schools need to serve more legumes in their lunches.
