    I asked for the charts in Tableau. This screen shot looks really sketchy and isn’t acceptable.

    The math is off on the state data since you calculated the “loans purchased by institution” as part of the Arkansas total. Removing that, you get:
    Black- 3400 38.37%
    Am Indian 300 35.21%
    Nat. Haw. 52 27.66%
    White 15894 20.50%
    Asian 253 18.67%

    The national data — American Indian rejection rate was 22.5% so that should have been rounded up to 23%. Use percentage signs — % — on the columns.
