Answer: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that 430 students were surveyed and 258 said that their favorite type of pet was a dog. The fraction/decimal of those that chose dog as their favorite pet will be:

= 258/430

= 3/5

= 0.6

Suppose that only 100 students were surveyed, the number of students that would say that a dog is their favorite types of pet will be:

= 0.6 × 100

= 60
