Question

7. A study reported that in a random sampling of 100 women over the age of 35 showed that 8 of the women were married 2 or more times. Based on the study results, how many women in a group of 5,000 women over the age of 35 would likely be married 2 or more times? A. 55 B. 150 C. 200 D. 400 E. 600​

Answer 1

Hi! The answer is going for be D (400)

Explanation:

Out of 100 women, 8 were married 2 or more times which is 8% or 0.08

So out of 5000 women, the number of women married 2 or more times is: 0.08*5000 = 400

x/5000 = 8/100

x/50=8/1

x=400

Hope this helps! Have a good day!
