Explanation:
Given that a school newspaper reporter decides to randomly survey 14 students to see if they will attend Tet (the Vietnamese New Year) festivities this year, and based on past years, journalists know that 19% of students attend Tet festivities, to determine the number of students who will attend the festivities, the following calculation must be performed:
14 x 19/100 = X
266/100 = X
2.66 = X
Thus, it is expected that between 2 and 3 of those students will go to the Tet festival.
