First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.
B = number of boys
G = number of girls
You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B
Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.
Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60
To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12
However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48
The number of girls you have is 48.
Answer:
The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.
The sample is used to make conclusions regarding the population.
A poll is conducted from the target population to determine the general opinions of the individuals of that population.
The basic method of polling is to select a few thousand individuals from the population and ask their opinions on a certain subject.
The poll will result usually in two values, the proportion of individual in favor and the proportion of individual not in favor.
Consider the example below.
The polling done to determine the favorability of the new brand of tea. The polling was done using a few hundred members of the tea drinking community of a country. The poll resulted as follows:
In favor = 72%
Not in favor = 28%
The population is the entire tea drinking community of a country.
In this case the sample consist of few 100 people of the tea drinking community of a country.
3.21 it should be at least
15 vg
18 vg
Just put a line in-between them to make a fraction.
