Using proportions, it is found that out of the next 75 couples asked, 49 will have at least one spouse that prefers action movies.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

Researching this problem on the internet, it is found that out of 150 couples initially surveyed, 26 + 25 + 12 + 22 + 13 = 98 couples had at least one spouse preferring action movies, hence the proportion is:

p = 98/150 = 0.6533.

Out of the next 75 couples, the amount is:

A = 0.6533 x 75 = 49

Hence, out of the next 75 couples asked, 49 will have at least one spouse that prefers action movies.
