To find out how many of the 36,500 Beeville citizens would most likely name summer as their favorite season, we can set up a proportion:
350/500 = x/36,500
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:
500x = 350 * 36,500
Simplifying, we get:
500x = 12,677,500
Dividing both sides by 500, we get:
x = 25,355
Therefore, we can estimate that approximately 25,355 of the 36,500 Beeville citizens would name summer as their favorite season based on the survey results.
