Question

Sally is planning a trip for 225 students

Work out how many of the 225 students you think will want to go to Thorpe park.

Answer 1

Answer: 75 students.

Explanation:

In the data set we have a total of 10 + 8 + 7 + 5 = 30 students.

of those, 10 want to go to the park, the percentage is:

(10/30)*100% = 33.3%

Then, out of the 225, we can expect that a 33.3% (or 0.333 in decimal form) want to go to the park, this is:

N = 225*0.333% = 74.925

We can roud it up, and get N = 75

So Sally can expect that 75 students want to go to the park
