Question

You survey 100 residents of your town of 5000 people on whether they will vote "yes" or "no" in the election. Twenty-five people say they will vote "no." Seventy-five people say they will vote "yes." How many people would you expect to vote "yes" if all 5000 people vote? A)75 B)1250 C)3750 D)4925

Answer 1

C) 3750

`(75)/(100) = (x)/(5000)`

5000 ÷ 100=50

So, 75 x 50=3750
