Part of the population of 5,750 elk at a wildlife preserve is infected with a parasite. A random sample of 50 elk shows that 10 of them are infected. How many elk are likely to be infected?

Based on the sample, there will likely be infected elk in the wildlife preserve. List the next 4 multiples of the fraction 5/6

Answer:

575

Explanation:

If a sample of 50 is selected and ten out of that are infected, dividing you would get my answer. To get it, divide the sample amount that were infected by the whole amount. I am unsure if this is correct but fingers crossed this helps. Feel free to talk it through with me.
