Question 837389: ina a shipment of 400 parts, 14 have been found defective how many defective parts should be defective in a shipment of 1000

First, put this into a proportion
14/400=x/1000
So, as you may see, you can divide the numerator and denominator by 4 (using 14/400) Then you would multiply by 10
35 out of 1000 would be defective.
