Question

At a concert 6 out of the first 20 people who entered the

concert were wearing hats. Based on this information, if
there are 800 people at the concert, how many of these
people are expected to be wearing a hat?

Answer 1

240 people because 6/20 is 30% and 240/800 is the same 30%

Answer 2

240 people

Explanation:

6/20=x/800

800*6=20x

4800=20x

240=x

Therefore, you would expect 240 people to be wearing a hat
