Answer:

125 students

Explanation:

according to this survey, she surveyed 80 people, and of the 80 people she surveyed, 25 of them said they like pop best

set up a proportion to find how many students will like pop if there are 400 students at her school:

25/80=x/400

80x=10000

x=125

125 students
