An ad for seat belts claimed that proper usage of seat belts "reduces the chance of fatality in a car crash by 350 percent."
What is wrong with this statement?
Choose the correct answer below:
A. If seat belts eliminated all fatalities, it would result in a 100% reduction, so it is not possible to reduce fatalities by more than 100%. If fatalities fell by 100%, it would be cut in half. Thus, a decrease of 200% means that it would be totally eliminated, and a decrease of more than 200% is impossible.
The actual amount of the decrease in fatalities is less than 100%.
The statement does not mention the initial amount of fatalities.
