Question: Scary Arithmetic An ad for ADT Security Systems says, When you go on vacation, burglars go to work [ . . . ] According to

Scary Arithmetic
An ad for ADT Security Systems says,
"When you go on vacation, burglars go to work [...] According to FBI statistics, over 25% of home burglaries occur between Memorial Day to Labor Day."
Do the data in the ad support the claim that burglars are more likely to go to work during the time between Memorial Day to Labor Day? Please explain your answer. (6 Points)
Note: You can assume that "over 25%" means only slightly over. Had it been much over, say closer to 30%, then the marketers would have said so.
Note: Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May and Labor Day is observed on the first Monday of September.
