What percentage of school-age children have learning disabilities?

  1. 3%

  2. 10%

  3. 20%

  4. 25%

The correct answer is: 10%

Learning disabilities affect approximately 10% of school-age children. This means that 90% of children do not have learning disabilities. Option A, C, and D are incorrect because they either underestimate or overestimate the percentage. It is also important to note that the percentage may vary depending on the source and the specific learning disabilities being considered. However, the 10% estimate is widely accepted and used in educational and professional settings.
