Based on the number of families that left and the number in total on that block, the expected number of families gone on the other block is 25 families.
On the first block, the proportion of families that is gone is:
= Number of families gone / Total number of families on block
= 5 / 12
If there are 60 families on a block, the number gone would be:
= Proportion of families gone x Total number of families
= 5/12 x 60
= 25 families
In conclusion, 25 families would be gone
