To solve this you put it into a ratio
the number of students that like it will go on top and the total college students will be on bottom
5/8
if a college has a total of 4000 students, that will go on bottom and x will be on top
x/4000
to solve for x you would multiply 5 by 4000, and then divide by 8
this would give you x=2500
