Based on the data provided and using the average number of winners per contestant across the three days (Fri, Sat, Sun), we can calculate the average number of winners per contestant as follows:
Total winners = 27 + 54 + 39 = 120
Total contestants = 215 + 417 + 368 = 1000
Average number of winners per contestant = Total winners / Total contestants
Average number of winners per contestant = 120 / 1000 = 0.12
Therefore, if there are 750 contestants on Monday, Jessica should expect approximately 750 * 0.12 = 90 contestants to dunk a teacher.
