A survey was conducted to see which of four major sports American college students prefer to watch: baseball, basketball, football, or soccer. Of those surveyed, 53% said they prefer football, 26% chose basketball, and 15% preferred baseball. If there were 1,000 American college students in a room, how many would you expect to prefer soccer?

Answer:

Explanation:

53+26+15=94

94-100=6

So I'm just gonna assume that 6% of people prefer to watch soccer.

Now to solve how many people out of 1000 would watch soccer we'd have to multiply 1000 by 0.09 which gives us 90.

So 90 people out of 1000 would prefer to watch soccer.
