Answer:

59 patients

Step-by-step explanation:

Total patients Sam saw in a week = 236

Percentage of patients near-sighted = 25%

How many of the patients Sam saw were near-sighted?

Number of patients near-sighted = 25% of 236

= 25/100 × 236

= 0.25 × 236

= 59

Number of patients near-sighted = 59 patients

The number of patients Sam saw in a week that were near-sighted is 59 patients
