Answer:

15 boys selected

Explanation:

Given


N =11000 --- The population


n = 100 --- The sample selected


p =0.152 -- The proportion of boys

Required

The expected number of boys selected

The expected number is calculated by multiplying the sample size by the proportion of boys.

So, we have:


Boys = p * n


Boys = 0.152 * 100


Boys = 15.2


Boys = 15 --- approximated
