A survey of 9,000 randomly selected dentists practicing in the untied states found that 3,600 of them used text messaging to remind clients of upcoming appointments. If there were 147,000 practicing dentists in the US, approximately how many of them used text messaging for that purpose?

58,800.

3600 divided by 9000 is 0.4

147,000 * 0.4 is 58,800
