Question

Seven out of ten people say they will vote for Mrs. Meekus . If 5,500 people vote,how many are likely to vote for Mrs.Meekus​

Answer 1

3,850 people are likely to vote for Mrs. Meekus.

Explanation:

Given that Mrs. Meekus has a voting intention of 7 out of 10, that is, 70%, in the event that 5,500 people are going to vote in the elections, the voting intention for this candidate would be obtained through the following calculation:

5,500 x 0.70 = X

3,850 = X

Thus, if said voting intention is reproduced, Mrs. Meekus would be voted by 3,850 voters.
