What percentage of people are affected by some type of mental illness?

  1. 5%

  2. 10%

  3. 25%

  4. 50%

The correct answer is: 10%

Mental illness is a prevalent issue that affects a large number of individuals. While it is difficult to determine an exact percentage, recent studies have estimated that approximately 10% of people are affected by some type of mental illness. This means that out of the given options, 5% (A), 25% (C), and 50% (D) are too low of estimates. On the other hand, option B is the most accurate as it falls within the range of most commonly reported statistics on the prevalence of mental illness.
