Hi there! The answer is A. 25.

If 9 out of 30 people say they run more than 5 days a week (and we assume that the rates are proportional), we can find the amount of runners the following way: multiply the proportion ( 9 : 30 ) by the total amount of runners ( 84 ).

[tex]runners = 9 \times 84 \div 30 = 25.2[/tex]
Therefore about 25 runners run more than 5 days a week

25 is the correct answer! I got this explanation image from Khan Academy, if the other answer doesn't make sense to you.
