In a survey at a local university, 43% of students say that they get less than the recommended eight hours of sleep per night. In a group of 3500 students, how many would you expect get eight or more hours of sleep per night?

Answer:

1995

Explanation:

Percent of students that get more than 8 hours of sleep = 100 -43 = 57%

Number of students that get more than 8 hours of sleep = 57% x 3500

0.57 x 3500 = 1995 students
