they don't support your figure of 13% of all CA teenagers get pregnant every year. With that number, you are actually saying over a 1/4 of the teenage girls in CA get pregnant every year......that's highly unlikely

Still math challenged - 13% is not 1/4 or 25% it's closer to 1/8.


Let's say for simplicity sake there are 100 teens in CA. 13% of them would be 13. However half of those teens are boys and are not likely to get pregnant. So that would leave 50 girls. 13 divided by 50 is 26%.........that's "more than 1/4 of the teenage girls in CA". Got it?
