I need help pls A certain university in the United States has a student enrollment of 19,100. Mr. Hill knows the percentage of students that are male and the percentage of students that are female. Suppose a student reaches in the bag and randomly selects nine red chips and eleven yellow chips. Based on this sample, what is a good estimate for the number of enrolled university students that are male?

Answer:

About 8595 students

Explanation:

If approximately 9/20 of the students are male, multiplying this by the total number of students enrolled will give a good approximation of the total number of enrolled males. 9/20 * 19100=8595. Hope this helps!
