In this part of the assignment, you are projecting the number of students who would benefit from participating in your activity. What you will be producing is a table and analysis similar to what is on page 478 of your text. Use the following information about clubs offered at Global High School. Transfer this data to an excel spreadsheet to finish the assignment.
