Answer:

a) 103, b) No

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We need to multiply the probability by the amount of the sample to get:

200 × 51.6% = 103.2, rounded down to 103

b) As we have selected the people randomly, we have no control over the type of people we are given - this is theoretical and the estimate is not definite - all of the sample could have murdered by firearm or even none (even though it is highly unlikely).
