a. To find out how many students practice every day, we can use proportion.
Let x be the number of students who practice every day.
Then, we can set up the proportion:
7/12 = x/144
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:
12x = 7 * 144
12x = 1008
x = 84
Therefore, we can predict that 84 students practice every day.
b. The sample size is the total number of martial arts students at the school, which is given as 144.
