Answer: 270 people
Explanation:
Since the ratio of the number of people who gets there news from social media to the number of people who got there news from other sources is 3 : 7. This can be expressed in a fraction as:
Fraction of people who gets there news from social media = 3/10
Fraction of people who got there news from other sources = 7/10
If there are 900 people, number of people who gets there news from social media will be:
= 3/10 × 900
= 3 × 90
= 270 people
