Random Sampling Quick Check

The correct answer is 141.

To find the approximate number of students in the school who prefer animated movies, we can use the formula for finding the proportion of a sample in a population.

Proportion of students who prefer animated movies = Number of students who prefer animated movies in the sample / Total number of students in the sample

Proportion of students who prefer animated movies = 48 / 120 = 0.4

To find the approximate number of students in the school who prefer animated movies, we can multiply the proportion by the total number of students in the school.

Approximate number of students who prefer animated movies = Proportion of students who prefer animated movies * Total number of students in the school

Approximate number of students who prefer animated movies = 0.4 * 628 = 251.2

Rounding to the nearest whole number, approximately 251 students in the school prefer animated movies.
