Question

in a recent survey, 336 out of 500 people chose reallygood cola as their favorite soft drink. If a similar survey was conducted out of 2,000 people, how many people would choose reallygood cola as their favorite soft drink? explain.

Answer 1

In the first survery $\frac{336}{500}$ considered cola.
Assuming we can extrapolate this ratio, all we have to do is get the same ratio, but out of 2000 people.
$\frac{336}{500} * \frac{4}{4} \\ \frac{1344}{2000}$
The answer is 1344 people.
