PLZ HELP!
in a survey, 25 out of 200 students are planning to vote for Susie for class president. If there are 1,000 students voting, how many votes would Susie expect?

Respuesta :

Answer:

125 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion.

[tex]\frac{25}{200} =\frac{x}{1000}[/tex]

Cross-multiply.  Solve for x.

[tex]25,000=200x\\25,000/200 = 200x/200\\125=x[/tex]

Susie can expect 125 votes.
