Complete question is;
Francis surveyed a random sample of 70 students at Franklin High School about their favorite season. Of the students surveyed, 18 chose fall as their favorite season. There are 1816 students at Franklin High School. Based on the data, what is the most reasonable estimate for the number of students at Franklin High School whose favorite season is fall?
Answer:
467
Explanation:
We are told that 18 out of 70 of the surveyed students' favorite season is fall. This when expressed in fraction, gives; 18/70.
Now we need to multiply this fraction by the total number of Franklin High School students in order to get the estimate for the number of students at Franklin High School whose favorite season is fall. Total number of students = 1816. Thus, estimate is;
1816 × 18/70 = 467
Thus, the most reasonable estimate for the number of students at Franklin High School whose favorite season is fall would be 467.
