Russell randomly surveys seventh-graders in his school and finds that 6 of 30 attend summer camp. If there are 200 seventh-graders in his school, about how many are expected to attend summer camp? Enter your answer in the box.

----------eighth -graders

Answer 1

40

Explanation:

6 of 30 is the ratio 6 to 30 or 6/30.

6/30 reduces to 1/5

The survey shows that 1/5 of the students attend summer camp.

1/5 of 200 = 1/5 * 200 = 40
