Aboard small passenger vessels the number of children’s life jackets carried must be at least what percentage of the total number of persons aboard?

A 4%
B 7.5%
C 10%
D 15%
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) 10%. Aboard small passenger vessels, the number of children's life jackets carried must be at least 10% of the total number of persons aboard. This requirement is specified in the U.S. Coast Guard regulations for small passenger vessels. The other options are incorrect because 4% (A) is too low, 7.5% (B) is not a standard requirement, and 15% (D) is higher than the actual regulation.
