1 answer

According to Tan's sample data, 30 out of the 120 students surveyed prefer animated movies.

To estimate the number of students in the school who prefer animated movies, we can set up a proportion using Tan's sample data:
30 (students who prefer animated movies in sample) / 120 (total students surveyed in sample) = X (students who prefer animated movies in the school) / 628 (total students in the school)

Solving for X:
30/120 = X/628
X = 30 * 628 / 120
X ≈ 157 students

So, approximately 157 students in the school prefer animated movies.
