A survey in one middle school showed that 2 out of 8 students help cook meals at home. Predict how many out of the 589 students in the school help cook meals at home.
First you divide 589 students by 8 to get 73.625. Than you divide 73.625 by two to get 36.8125. Which you can round to about 37, so it would be about 37 students.
