25 out of the 1000 students at Salisbury Middle School were asked what their favorite activity was from last year’s PBIS Carnival. Here are the results:

dunking booth- 12

jousting- 8

human bowling- 5

Based on those results, how many of SMS’s 1000 students would you predict would say that the dunking booth was their favorite activity?
