Question 65930: Can you please help me on this question? Mr. Jones has taken a survey of college students and found that 80 out of 81 students studied last weekend. If the college has 7411 students, what is the best estimate of the number of students who studied last weekend?

Using the survey data students studied last week. If that proportion is correct then the same fraction of the total students studied last week.

Using common sense then round to the nearest whole student ie 714 students studied last week.
