Question

Two hundred people attended the history museum exhibit on Monday. Twenty-five of the people who attended the exhibit were surveyed at random. Twelve of the surveyed people answered "yes" to the question.
How many of the total number of people who attended the history museum would you expect to answer "yes"?

12
24
48
96

Answer 1

96 people would be expected to answer yes

200/25=8

8x12=96

Answer 2

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people attending the history museum is 200

Surveyed people are 25

Out of the 25, 12 people said yes

Therefore; the fraction which said yes = 12/25

To find the total number of people expected to say yes out of those that attended the history museum;

Fraction of the sampled that said yes × total number of people that attended.

= 12/25 × 200

=  96
