Registration records show that 5 out of 8 students at college are older than 25 years. If there are 1200 students at the college, how many would you expect to be older than 25 years?

Take the total (1200) and divide it by the base number (8) and then multiply by how many there are in the ratio (5)
1200/8= 150 150*5=750
750 students are 25+
