QUESTION 1 [11] Use the information below to answer the
questions that follow. A local community centre will soon be
celebrating its annual "Volunteer of the Year" award, with the
winner receiving a R20 000 gift card and a certificate of
appreciation. Two volunteers, Sonia and Jack, are finalists for
this prize. Sonia has been volunteering at the centre for fifteen

contributions. She received 40 nominations from various
community members. Jack is a new volunteer who has made a
big impact with his energy and innovative ideas. He received 20
nominations from both community members and employees.
The community centre's administration received 200 valid
nominations. Sonia and Jack are now excitedly anticipating the
announcement of the winner, conscious that their chances are
determined by the number of nominations they received, as
well as the selection committee's considerations. 1.1 What is
