Suppose the probability of selecting a movie goer who prefers candy instead of popcorn is 50%. Out of 300 movie goers, how many can you expect will prefer candy?

Out of 300 movie goers, we can expect 150 to prefer candy over popcorn. This is because the probability of selecting a movie goer who prefers candy is 50%, which means half of the total number of movie goers will prefer candy.
