The above circle graph shows the results of a school election. According to the rules, the office of President falls to the student who wins the most votes, and the office of Vice-President falls to the student who finishes second. A runoff only happens in case of a tie.
Which of the following is the result of this election?
Phelps and Creighton will face each other in a runoff to determine which will be President and which will be Vice-President.
Phelps was elected President; Creighton and Wells will face each other in a runoff to determine who will be Vice-President.

Below is a table that gives the population of Washington City for six census years.
Which of the following decades saw the greatest growth in the city's population?
1970 to 1980
2000 to 2010
1980 to 1990

For each decade, take the difference of the population of the last year and that of the first year. We can omit 1990 to 2000, as the population declined over that decade.
1960-70:
1970-80:
1980-90:
2000-10:
The greatest growth occurred between 2000 and 2010.
