John randomly surveys 50 peopleto find their favorite store at the mall. He finds that 18 people say they like the clothing store the best. If he conducts a second survey with 125 people, which is the BEST prediction for the number of people who will say they like the clothing store the best?

what they are probably after is ˜μ=1850npred=n⋅˜μ=125⋅1850=45

We have the following proportion

 

18 / 50   =  x  / 125   multiply both sides by 125

 

125 * 18  /  50  = x

 

2250 / 50  =  x

 

225 / 5 = x

 

45 = x  = number of people out of 125 who like the clothing store the best
