Question: 1 / 400

What percentage of waste is estimated to be hazardous waste according to the EPA?

94%

5%

The choice C is incorrect because hazardous waste makes up more than 1% of total waste, according to the EPA.

The choice A is incorrect because 94% is too high of an estimate for hazardous waste and does not leave enough room for non-hazardous waste.

The choice D is incorrect because 0.1% is too low of an estimate for hazardous waste and also does not leave enough room for non-hazardous waste. Additionally, the wording "less than" could imply that hazardous waste makes up a very small portion, which is not the case according to the EPA's estimation.
