A survey revealed that 4 out of 5 people prefer vanilla ice cream to chocolate. In a class of 30 how many students are likely to prefer chocolate ice cream?
Answered by Ms. Sue
1/5 = x/30

Cross multiply and solve:

5x = 30
x = ?

Answered by Jill
I'm pretty sure it's 24.
Because you figure 30/5=6 So then just take the 6 and times it by the 4. 4*6=24
Answered by Ms. Sue
Nope. 24 prefer vanilla.

The question asks about preferences for chocolate.

A survey found that 9 out of 11 people prefer vanilla
ice cream. If there are 660 people at a party, how many
would you expect to want vanilla ice cream?
