What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, 9 out of 30 members said that they run more than 5 days a week. What is the equivalent out of 84? The rule of three is given by:

9 ran more than 5 days a week - 30 members

n ran more than 5 days a week - 84 members

Applying cross multiplication:

30n = 9 x 84

n = 9 x 84/30

n = 25.2
