Question #1 has 45 correct answers
Question #2 has 15 correct answers
Question #3 has 32 correct answers
Question #4 has 40 correct answers
Question #5 has 29 correct answers
Using the data, how many of the 120 algebra students at the school who are taught algebra by other teachers would you expect to answer Question 3 correctly?

32/50 = 0.64 = 64%
.
120 x 0.64 = 76.8
Because we can't split a student to get 0.8, we have to use whole numbers, therefore the answer is: I would expect 76 students to answer Question 3 correctly.
