Question

Lisa surveyed 50 randomly selected students to find out if they thought their school should start a recycling program of the 50 students
surveyed, 42 answered "yes."
If all 375 students in the school were asked the same question, approximately how many students are likely to answer "yes"?
A. 158
B. 283
C. 315
D. 333
E. 367

Answer 1

315 students would answer "yes". If 42 out of 50 students answered yes, that'd be 84% (you can determine this by dividing 42/50). Once you've determined that part,  you can multiply 375 by 0.84 (converting a percentage to a decimal), which would give you 315.
